The computational model of the reed-based element is in scope of this article. This element is studied for its potential suitability to generate an arfificial source voice. Compressed air is being used like a source of the energy to produce the voiced speech (similar to the healthy voiced speech). Two-way iteraction of solid and fluid part of the computational model has been considered for the solution. Computation has been performed by the finite element method (Ansys) and results have been processed by the sofsware MATLAB. Basic characteristics like a frequency spectrum and a fundamental frequency of generated source voice are evaluated. Relationship between deformation of the reed and the pressure in front of the reed is presented. This characteristic represents one of the basic phonation theories which are in our scope. This theory is based on the compressed air ‘bubble‘. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The presented paper is focused on the stress-strain analysis of the restored tooth. For this problem computational modelling was chosen using the finite element method. The tooth is modelled from dentin and dental enamel with a class II cavity. The size of the dental cavity is considered in three sizes and three shapes. For restoration two types of filling materials were used. A physiological model of the tooth was created as well. Force was prescribed on the occlusal surface of the tooth. The analysis of results shows that from the different filling materials, and their interaction with the dental tissues, amalgam is from a mechanical aspect the best material for the restored tooth in the molar segment. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
