| Popis: | An air damped artificial mastoid has been constructed to simulate the mechanical impedance of the human mastoid. Viscoelastic substances extensively used in current mastoid designs are not employed. The instrument is virtually immune to aging effects and can be easily reproduced. The instrument is used as a laboratory standard to determine the force transmitted through the skull by bone vibrators used in clinical audiometers and bone conduction type hearing aids. |
