How weIl can we model experimental observations of the peripheral
auditory system'? What theoretical predictions can we make that
might be tested'? It was with these questions in mind that we
organized the 1985 Mechanics of Hearing Workshop, to bring together
auditory researchers to compare models with experimental
observations. Tbe workshop forum was inspired by the very
successful 1983 Mechanics of Hearing Workshop in Delft [1]. Boston
University was chosen as the site of our meeting because of the
Boston area's role as a center for hearing research in this
country. We made a special effort at this meeting to attract
students from around the world, because without students this field
will not progress. Financial support for the workshop was provided
in part by grant BNS- 8412878 from the National Science Foundation.
Modeling is a traditional strategy in science and plays an
important role in the scientific method. Models are the bridge
between theory and experiment. Tbey test the assumptions made in
experimental designs. They are built on experimental results, and
they may be used to test hypotheses and predict experimental
results. Tbe latter is the scientific method at its best. Cochlear
function is very complicated. For this reason, models play
animportant role. One goal of modeling is to gain understanding,
but the necessary mathematical tools are often formidably complex.
An ex am pie of this is found in cochlear macromechanics.
