Abstract :
The computer program for electromagnetic (EM) and thermal analysis of the problems involving RF radiation and RF power absorption in complex environments including the models of living organisms is presented in this paper. The code is based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for solving the EM problems, and the bioheat equation for predicting the temperature distribution in the complex objects (e.g. animals, human body). The software includes powerful GUI and scripting support for automated calculations and parametric study.
