Summary:
This paper calculated and measured the characteristics of current density induced inside human body under 60 Hz extremely low frequency magnetic fields. Human model was composed of several organs and other parts, whose shapes were expressed by spheroids or cylinders. Organs such as the brain, heart, lungs, liver and intestines were taken into account. Applying the boundary element method to the human model, we estimated effects on the induced current distribution due to differences of the organ conductivity and shape.
