This study aimed to investigate the voice onset time (VOT) of plosives in the VCV syllables by the place of articulation and phonation type spoken by children with bilateral cochlear implants (CIs) in comparison with children with typical hearing (TH). In all, 15 children with bilateral CIs and 15 children with TH participated in this study, aged between 5 to 10 years. All children produced 9 VCV syllables and their VOT were analyzed by the Praat software. There was no significant difference in mean VOT between children with bilateral CIs and children with TH. However, there was a significant difference in mean VOT by the place of articulation, such that the VOT for velars were longer than those for bilabials and alveolars. Additionally, there was a significant difference in mean VOT by the phonation type, such that the VOT of aspirated consonants were longer than those of lenis and fortis consonants. The results of this study suggest that children with bilateral CIs can distinguish the acoustic properties of plosive consonants and control the speech timing between the structures of the larynx and the oral cavity at a similar level as children with TH.

본 논문에서는 한국어에 있어서 세 가지 유형의 파열음과 일본어에 있어서 두 가지 유형의 파열음과 일본어에 있어서 두 가지 유형의 파열음이 보여주는 시간적 특성을 어두 위치 및 모음간 위치로 나누어 비교해 보았다- 한국어에 있어서 세 가지 유형의 파열음은 어두 위치에서 모두 무성음으로 실현되므로 성의 대립으로는 이들을 유형화 할 수 없고, 그보다는 조음의 힘과 기식의 유무에 따라 연음, 무기 경음, 유기 경음으로 분류하는 것이 타당하다. 이에 비해 일본어 파열음은 유성음인 연음과 무성음인 경음의 두가지 유형으로 대립된다. 유성음과 무성음, 그리고 유기음과 무기음의 구분에는 파열음의 개방에서부터 성대 진동까지의 시간인 성 시작 시간(VOT)과 기식의 길이가 변수가 된다. 경음과 연음의 구분에는 선행 모음의 길이, 폐쇄 지속 시간, Vl/(Vl+CL)의 비율이 유용한 정보가 된다. 양국어 어두 파열음의 VOT를 비교해 볼 때, 일본어 유성음은 음수의 VOT를 가지며, 한국어 무기 경음에서는 VOT가 10msec정도로 짧게 나타나고, 그 다음으로 한국어 연음. 일본어 무성음, 한국어 유기 경음의 순서로 길어진다. $\frac{선행 모음의 길이}{(선행 모음의 길이+폐쇄 지속 시간)}$의 비율은 언어의 특성도 반영해 주는데, 한국어의 경우 연음: 무기 경음: 유기 경음의 비는 0.63: 0.30:0.35, 일본어의 경우 유성음:무성음의 비는 0.69: 0.45로 나타났다. 청취 실험을 통해 한국인의 자음 인식 경향을 살펴본 결과, 성대 진동의 유무를 변별적으로 사용하지 않는 한국인 화자는 일본어 유성음은 연음으로, 무성음은 경음으로 인식하는 경향이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Human vocal cords vibrate as quickly as 100-250 times per second, so it is impossible to observe them with normal endoscopic diagnostic equipment. High-speed videolaryngoscopy (HSV) allows the visualization of non-periodic vibratory motion of vocal fold beyond the limitation of videostroboscopy. New developed post-processing methods that converts HSV to two-dimensional videokymography (2D VKG) using U-medical image-processing software can provide quantitative information on vocal fold mucosa vibration. Multifunctional laryngeal examination system is composed of 3 kinds of examinations such as HSV, 2D scanning digital kymography (2D DKG) and line scanning digital kymography (DKG). Evaluation of entire vocal cord vibratory pattern in each cord is possible using 2D DKG and a faster and more reliable quantitative information can be obtained. As this system is used in clinical and research, it is expected to bring much advances to the diagnosis of voice disorders. In this review, I will introduce the principles and advantages on examination of the vocal fold vibration, which is in the spotlight recently, and proceed with the literature review.

In this study, nonlinear vibration analysis of the cylindrical orthotropic porous thin plate under V-shaped tension distribution with wire impact damping is considered. We make dynamic model of the plate under the tension using commercial FEM code and reduce the number of its degrees of freedom using dynamic condensation. The dynamic model of wire is obtained as lumped mass model from string equation. And then we analyze the nonlinear vibration of the plate including the impact phenomenon between the plate and the wire using the reduced mass and stiffness matrices of the plate and lumped model of the wire. The contact phenomenon between them can be described by impact contact elements composed of contact stiffness coefficients from Hertzian contact theory and contact damping coefficients from restitution coefficient between them. And we discussed the results of nonlinear vibration analysis for variations of their design parameters.

The nonlinear vibration of the thin perforated plate is analyzed in consideration of the V-shaped tension distribution and the effect of wire impact damping. The reduced order FEM model of the tension plate is obtained from dynamic condensation for the mass and stiffness matrices. Tension wire is modeled using the lumped parameter method to effectively describe its contact interactions with the plate. The nonlinear contact-impact model is composed of spring and damper elements, of which parameters are determined from the Hertzian contact theory and the restitution coefficient, respectively. From the evaluation of the computational accuracy and computation time for the deduced impact stiffness and damping coefficient, we determined proper values for the simulation works, accounting for the computational accuracy as well as the computational efficiency. Finally we discussed the results of nonlinear nitration analysis for variations of their design parameters.

Purpose of this study is to help classifying Sasang Constitution through correlation with Larynx waveform. This study was done it under the suppose that Sasang Constitution would be correlation with Larynx waveform.

상기도 점막의 분비세포와 이로부터 분비되는 점액은 각 부위에 따라 형태학적, 기능적 특성이 다르다. 특히 후두의 성대부위는 발성시 고속의 마찰진동이 있게 되어 성대상피를 보호하기 위한 윤활제 역할의 점액이 필요하다. 점탄성과 밀접한 연관이 있는 점액당단백질 분비세포의 조성비율과 밀도를 알기 위해서 개 10마리의 후두, 기관, 상악동, 비강점막을 채취하여 periodic acid-Schiff, alcian blue 1.0, alcian blue 2.5, high iron diamine-alcin blue염색을 하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 후두점막에서 선포의 밀도는 성문부의 후두실 상부에서 가장 높았다. 2. 후두점막에서 점액세포의 조성은 성문상부에서 가장 높았고, 장액세포의 조성은 성문부에서 가장 높았다. 3. 황화점액의 조성비는 성문부가 성문상부, 성문하부보다 유의하게 높았고, 후두의 세 부위와 기관에서 상악동과 비강보다 유의하게 높았다. 4. 타액점액의 조성비는 성문부에서 성문하부보다 유의하게 낮았으며, 성문부는 성문상부에 비해서도 통계적 유의성은 없었으나 낮은 경향을 보였다. 5. 상기도의 각 부위에서 당단백질의 조성비는 모든 부위에서 중성점액이 가장 높았고 산성점액중 성문부에서는 황화점액이 타액점액보다 유의하게 높았으며 성문하부, 상악동, 비강에서는 타액점액이 황화점액보다 유의하게 높았다. 이상의 결과에서 성문부에서 나타나는 높은 장액세포의 비율과 점액당단백질 조성의 특징이 성문부 점액의 성대운동에 대한 윤활작용에 적합한 생리적 역할을 담당하는 것으로 생각된다.

Recently, the laryngomicrosurgery has been done for the removal of benign laryngeal mass and for the improvement of voice. For the evaluation of the effect of the treatment, there must be any objective method such as aerodynamic study, vocal fold vibration study, acoustic analysis, psycho-acoustic evaluation and the neuro-muscular study. The authors evaluated the phoniatric effect of the laryngomicrosurgery for the patients of 15 laryngeal polyps and 9 laryngeal nodules, who received pre-op. and post-op. vocal function study from Jun. 1981 to Mar. 1983. The results obtained were as follows ; 1) The post-op. mean value of the maximum phonation time was increased 40 % in the unilateral polyps, 62 % in the bilateral nodules and 18 % in the unilateral nodules. 2) The post-op. mean value of the phonation quotient was decreased 25 % in comparison with pre-op. value in the case of the bilateral polyps, 26 % in the unilateral polyps, 55 % in the bilateral nodules and 12 % in the unilateral nodules. 3) The post-op. mean value of the mean air flow rate was decreased 27 % in comparison with the pre-op. value in the case of the bilateral polyps, 25 % in the unilateral polyps, 65 % in the bilateral nodules, 25 % in the unilateral nodules. 4) The glottic chink of the 10 cases of polyps among the 11 cases were disappeared, and the glottic chink of the 5 cases of nodules among 7 cases were also disappeared after surgery. 5) The pre-op. hoarseness of the 10 cases of polyps among the pre-op. hoarseness of the 11 cases of polyps were changed to clear and the 3 cases of nodules were also changed to clear.

The purpose of this work is to examine the voice onset times(VOTs) of the voiceless and voiced stops from the ten young male speakers of the Buckeye corpus[9]. The factors that are known to affect VOTs were also extracted, including the place of articulation, height of following vowels, location within word, presence of a preceding [s], status of the target word with respect to the content versus function word, presence of a syllabic stress, word frequency and speech rate. Findings from this work mostly agreed with those from earlier studies on English, but with some exceptions and new discoveries. We hope that this work can contribute to figuring out the nature and properties of the spontaneous speech of English.
