Improving vocal-tract models for intuitive understanding of the mechanisms of human speech production and applications for education in acoustics

在我们以前的研究中，我们已经开发了几个人类语音器官的物理模型，如声道和肺。这些模型给出了一个直观的理解的机制，语音生产，我们已经表明，他们是非常有用的，在广泛的情况下，包括科学讲习班的儿童和大学讲座。每个模型都有不同的优点，最好的模型取决于应用程序。因此，在目前的研究中，我们首先调查了我们确定的每个应用程序目前可用的模型类型，我们改进了现有的模型并确定了使用它们的新方法，我们为其他新应用程序开发了新模型。最后，我们评估了模型对我们确定的每个应用程序的适用性。

In our previous studies, we have developed several physical models of human speech organs, such as the vocal tract and the lungs. These models give an intuitive understanding of the mechanisms of speech production, and we have shown that they are extremely useful in a wide range of situations including science workshops for children and university lectures. Each model has different advantages, and the best model to use depends on the application. In the current study, therefore, we first investigated what types of models were currently available for each application we identified, we improved already existing models and identified new ways to use them, and we developed new models for other new applications. Finally, we evaluated how well suited the models are for each application we identified.
