title: A three-dimensional iterative scheme for an electromagnetic inductive applicator.
abstract: An efficient iterative method for solving quasi-static electromagnetic field problems is presented. The electromagnetic field is generated by an inductive applicator and is represented as a superposition of two constituents, viz. a primary field in absence of the tissue configuration and a secondary field generated by the presence of the tissue. Then, for the secondary field a quasi-static approximation is employed. In the quasi-static field equations a relaxation function is introduced, such that the resulting equations can be solved iteratively. For a realistic three-dimensional model of a human hand numerical results are presented.
