Anthropometric manikin for acoustic research

Burkhard, M. D., Sachs, R. M.·1975·The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America

Abstract

A manikin for hearing aid and related acoustic research was designed with median human adult dimensions. Ear simulation matches the acoustic response with an auricle, an ear canal, and an eardrum that equal the median ear in dimensions, acoustic impedance and modes. Dimensions of torso and head are based on published anthropometric data, but the auricle is based on data obtained for this development. The ear canal and eardrum are adapted from the earlike coupler by Zwislocki. The ear entrance sound pressure was found to be relatively insensitive to surface or skin impedance of the head. Validating measurements show the manikin, designated KEMAR, to be like a median human in acoustic response to free fields. Subject Classification: 65.22, 65.80, 65.35,65.82.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
