Effects of coiling on the micromechanics of the mammalian cochlea by Cai, Hongxue, Manoussaki, Daphne, Chadwick, Richard

“…The cochlea transduces sound-induced vibrations in the inner ear into electrical signals in the auditory nerve via complex fluid–structure interactions. The…”

Effects of Geometry on Fluid Loading in a Coiled Cochlea by Manoussaki, Daphne, Chadwick, Richard S.

“…Despite its snail-shaped geometry, theoretical studies of the mammalian cochlea generally modeled it as a straight fluid-filled duct. Most people support the…”

Prediction of potential locations of focal adhesions on the contour of adherent cells by Jetzek, F., Mylona, E., Manoussaki, D.

“…Focal adhesions (FA) play a dominant role in determining adherent cell morphology. This is particularly true for FA close to the cell contour on a…”
