Abstract
The present study quantified the in situ electric field and induced current density in anatomically based numeric Japanese male and female models for exposure to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields. A quasi-static FDTD method was applied to analyse this problem. The computational results obtained herein reveal that the 99 th percentile value of the in situ electric field in the nerve tissue and the current density averaged over an area of 1 cm(2) of the nerve tissue (excluding non-nerve tissues in the averaging region) in the female models were less than 35 and 25 %, respectively. These induced quantities in the Japanese models were smaller than those for European models reported in a previous study, which is mainly due to the difference in cross-sectional area of the body.
