The human vocal cord is treated as an elastic material capable of propagating compressional, shear, and surface waves. A mathematical formulation for commonly observed vibrational modes is developed. This includes horizontal as well as vertical tissue displacements. Current vocal cord models are discussed and evaluated in terms of their ability to describe adequately the vibrational degrees of freedom of the cords. Subject Classification: 70.20.
