Simulation of radiation field effects on a maritime ship upon an electric model of the human body

Abstract

The subject of the present paper subscribes to the trend of nowadays research in the field of EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) regarding the identification of some negative aspects of the electromagnetic field upon human body. More precisely, the paper presents a physic electrical model with concentrated parameters of the human body exposed to the electromagnetic field on board of a navy ship. Based on the measurements done on board it is analyzed how the electric currents induced “into the body” obey the international standards regarding the admissible limit values, so that the health of the personnel on board not to be affected.
