Fig 2
Vowel /i/ generated with the model using the Genioglossus partitioning shown in Fig 3.
Contours of the G-OBIM tongue model (in red) in the steady-state postures associated with the articulation of these sounds superimposed to various MR slices: (i) FE model of the tongue in the steady-state posture; (ii) sagittal views (left to right: mid-sagittal to left lateral); (iii) axial views (left to right: inferior to superior); (iv) coronal views (left to right: posterior to anterior); (v) enlargement of the tongue region in the mid-sagittal, (vi) axial and (vii) coronal views.
