Research Abstract |
1. We already have found in humans that the change in fundamental frequency of phonation (Fo) per unit change of transglottal pressure (dF/dP) shows a non-linear or V-shaped relation to Fo. 2. We hypothesize that the at a lower Fo, elongation if the vibrating part, and at a higher Fo, the restriction of the vibrating part would be responsible for the V-shaped relation between dF/dP and Fo. 3. The dog experiments performed in this study also supported this hypothesis. 4. The rubber model experiments performed in this study also supported this hypothesis. 5. The vocal fold dehydration lowered the values for dF/dP in a lower Fo, resulting in relatively flat V-shape. This suggests that the strategy Fo would be altered by the dehydration.
