Abstract
A general two-variable approach to the coupled hydroelastic problem of an idealized cochlea is carried out. The basic small parameter is the slenderness of the cochlea. A typical non-linear eigenvalue problem in the transverse cross-section plane results for the phase-function. The slow amplitude and phase variation are obtained analytically. Viscous effects produce traveling waves and a sharp cut-off.
