Popis: |
A BA (bionic ampulla) was designed and fabricated using an SMPF (Symmetric electrodes Metal core PVDF Fiber) sensor, which could imitate the sensory hair cells to sense the deformation of the cupula of the BA. Based on the BA, a bionic semicircular canal with membrane semicircular canal (MBSC) and a bionic semicircular canal without membrane semicircular canal (NBSC) were designed and fabricated. The biomechanical models of the MBSC and NBSC were established. The biomechanical models were verified through the perception experiments of the MBSC and the NBSC. The results showed that the SMPF could sense the deformation of the cupula. The MBSC and NBSC could sense the angular velocity and accelerations. What's more, it was speculated that in a human body, the endolymph probably had a function of liquid mass while the membranous semicircular canal and the cupula had a function similar to a spring in the human semicircular canal. |
