An alternative 3D numerical method to study the biomechanical behaviour of the human inner ear semicircular canal. Acta of Bioengineering and Biomechanics // Wroc¿aw University of Technology, 19(1), 3–15.http://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/14416The vestibular system is the part of the inner ear responsible for balance. Vertigo and dizziness are generally caused by vestibular disorders and are very common symptoms in people over 60 years old. One of the most efficient treatments at the moment is vestibular rehabilitation, permitting to improve the symptoms. However, this rehabilitation therapy is a highly empirical process, which needs to be enhanced and better understood.engComputer SimulationElastic ModulusEndolymphFinite Element AnalysisHumansHydrodynamicsImaging, Three-DimensionalNumerical Analysis, Computer-AssistedPressureRheologySemicircular CanalsViscosityModels, BiologicalAn alternative 3D numerical method to study the biomechanical behaviour of the human inner ear semicircular canaljournal article
