Abstract :
In this paper the characteristics of total current density in a homogeneous prolate spheroid model of biological object exposed to 60 Hz electric and magnetic fields (electric field: 1 kV/m, magnetic field: 1μT) have been discussed in consideration of phase difference between vertical electric field and horizontal magnetic field. The current density induced by the electric field is calculated using the finite element method
