TL;DR: Providing both high computational efficiency and physiological results, the proposed HLBM-6MM solver enables systematic parameter studies of phonation previously infeasible with traditional FSI approaches.
Computational modeling of human phonation is a uniquely challenging fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problem. It is constrained both by the large computational cost and numerical restrictions of existing methods, particularly in handling vocal fold (VF) contact. To combine physi…
