Théorique, numérique Description
We propose to study how coherent reflections of the traveling waves within a numerical model of the cochlea--the auditory organ of the inner ear--may give rise to active sound emissions by the ear, called oto-acoustic emissions, which are well characterized experimentally and used as a non-invasive screening test for deafness, but still poorly understood.
