| Full-field strain maps of intact rabbit eardrums subjected to static pressures are presented. A stochastic intensity pattern was applied to 12 eardrums, and strain maps were measured at the medial site using a stereoscopic digital image correlation setup for pressures between -2 and 2 kPa. Ear canal overpressures induced circumferential orientated positive strains between manubrium and the eardrum border that increased almost linearly with pressure. Radially orientated negative strains were found at the border and manubrium. Ear canal underpressures caused negative circumferential strains between manubrium and the tympanic annulus but radially orientated positive strains at the borders. The magnitudes of these negative strains at underpressures were larger than those of positive strains at overpressures and were nonlinearly proportional to pressure. In three ears, strains were calculated with intact and removed cochlea. The effect of cochlea removal on the peak-to-peak strain was found to be no more than 3%. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
