  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the electric field and current density induced in a human body when exposed to low frequency electromagnetic fields. A numerical technique based on the Finite Element Method and electromagnetic quasistatic approximations is employed to compute both the fields generated by low frequency sources and the fields induced inside a human body due to exposure or contact. Case study is conducted to investigate exposure situations pertaining to the safety of human being in the vicinity of high intensity low frequency electromagnetic fields.
