Abstract :
This paper presents a method of modeling an electric circuit of thin wire and thin plate submitted to an electromagnetic field. The proposed method requires a preliminary electrokinetic computation to find the current distribution on the plate due to a unit current and the magnetic field distribution. To compute the final current in the system, we model the thin plate as an electrical circuit component
