Abstract

On account of the complex structure of the middle ear and that it is more difficult to carry out experiments to test the nature of the mechanical components, the relevant data is hard to obtain, which has become an obstacle restricting analysis of the middle ear mechanic. Based on spatial structure and mechanical properties of ossicular chain, the paper has established functional relationship between load and members displacement with elastic principles and variation principles, in order that experimental results will be reflected in mechanical model. In the process of solving equations, we use the experimental data of a known special point or the various components function of statistical regression method and then combine them with the time shift function, so that the analytical solution of the various components will be achieved. The correctness of equation derived in this paper is verified by comparing the experimental data. So the model has provided a convenient way to obtain date in the future research analysis.
