Calculating electric field in a human body using XFDTD

XFDTD question

I want to calculate the induced electric field (and current) in a human body subjected to extremely low frequency (50~60Hz) magnetic fields form high voltage (500 or 220 KV) transmission towers.

I've managed to determine the values of magnetic flux density throughout the human body height and depth in different positions in the proximity of the towers.

One way to calculate the currents is to divide the human body into thousands of meshes and calculate the current in eash cell, provided that each few cells have a certain conductivity.

Would that be possible with XFDTD? .. If not, which software do you recommend?

By the way, I got the human body model from this topic

Re: XFDTD question

I think this is possible with Xfdtd. Their website has examples showing a human body model in various situations with calculations of fields and sar in the tissues.

hope this helps.
