声带因喉部肌肉激活产生的姿势在发声动态中起核心作用。异常的声带构型常导致发声效率低下及多种声音障碍。尽管临床上已观察到多样的声门闭合模式,其动态行为与发声特征背后的生物力学机制仍不完全清楚。现有包含内在肌群影响的数值模型计算成本高昂,限制了大规模参数分析的应用。本文提出一种计算成本低的声带模型,将声带主体与覆盖层分别视为复合梁与耦合膜。内在喉肌激活不仅定位甲状软骨与环状软骨关节,还在结构边界引入力矩,影响声门形态。该模型生成的发声特征与高保真有限元模型及临床研究结果定性一致,验证了其预测能力,并带来显著计算优势。该框架为不完全声门闭合对发声动力学的影响提供了生物力学见解,可作为研究特定发声障碍机制的高效工具。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The posture of the vocal folds produced by laryngeal muscle activation plays a central role in determining the dynamics of voice production. Abnormal vocal fold configurations are frequently associated with inefficient phonation and a variety of voice disorders. Although diverse glottal closure patterns have been observed clinically, the biomechanical mechanisms governing their dynamic behavior and resulting phonatory characteristics remain incompletely understood. Moreover, existing numerical models that incorporate the effects of the intrinsic musculature on posturing and glottal conformation are computationally expensive, which limits their suitability for large-scale parametric investigations. In this work, we introduce a computationally inexpensive vocal fold (VF) model wherein the body and cover VF layers are treated as a composite beam and a coupled membrane, respectively. Intrinsic laryngeal muscle activation, in addition to positioning the arytenoid cartilages and cricothyroid joint, introduces moments at the boundaries of the structure that influence glottal conformation. The model produces phonatory characteristics that are qualitatively consistent with those reported in high-fidelity finite-element models and clinical studies, thereby supporting its predictive capability while offering substantial computational advantage. The proposed framework provides biomechanical insights into the influence of incomplete glottal closure on phonation dynamics and may serve as a computationally tractable tool for investigating mechanisms underlying certain voice disorders.
