A finite-element of the cat eardrum was presented which included the effects of the 3-dimensional curved conical shape of the drum. The model was valid at low frequencies (below 1-2 kHz) and within the range of linear vibration amplitudes. The material properties were based on a review of the literature. The critical material parameters were the stiffness (2 .times. 108 dyn cm-2) and thickness (40 .mu.m) of the pars tensa. The model exhibited a vibration pattern and amplitude very similar to those observed experimentally using laser holography. A number of parameters were varied to study their relative importance in the model.
