Bioelectromagnetics (BioEM) covers the interaction of electromagnetic (EM) fields with the human body. It is a crucial topic in research for a wide range of medical devices for imaging and treatment. Safety regulations as provided by regulatory bodies such as the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) mean it is also a concern for a vast range of other products ranging from smartphones to electric cars. The human body is a complex structure made up materials with a wide range of frequency-dependent EM and thermal properties. To approach these complexities we need specialized modeling and simulation methods. The CST Studio Suite electromagnetic and multiphysics simulation tools can help to tackle the challenges of electrical engineering near the human body. Powerful design tools and realistic material models can capture the rich details of both electronic devices and the human body. High-performance solver technology can simulate EM fields in the complex environment of the body rapidly and accurately. Electromagnetic Fields in the Human Body The complexity of the human body requires detailed simulation models. SIMULIA software supports both polygonal (CAD) body models and voxel body models, which it can pose within the tool to set up realistic test scenarios. A family of simulation-ready human body models representing different body types is available from SIMULIA. CST Studio Suite simulation solutions also include accurate bio-heat models. Our approach is considering thermoregulation effects such as blood flow and metabolic heat, to realistically simulate how electromagnetic fields heat the body.
