project title

Theoretical and experimental analysis methods in bioelectromagnetics, fusion technology magnetohydrodynamics, plasma physics, accelerator systems, wireless power transfer, electromagnetic compatibility, ground penetrating radar and stochastic electromagnetics (BIOEMFUSE)

Description of research in a 1-year term

Formulation and related numerical solution methods in the area of bioelectromagnetics, (with particular emphasis to 5G systems), fusion technology, biomedical applications of electromagnetic fields, ground penetrating radars, plasma physics, accelerator systems, wireless power transfer and electromagnetic compatibility will be developed.

Within the framework of electromagnetic-thermal dosiemtry some efficient canonical tissue models (planar, cyilindrical spherical models) will be developed same as related analytical methods for the solution of related integral, integro-diferential and differential equations. Also, realistic, anatomically based, tissue models and related numerical methods for the solution of governing equations will be developed. Analysis of realistic lightning protection systems based on the antenna theory by using corresponding numerical methods will be carried out. Environmental Impact of offshore wind turbine will be investigated. Some advanced numerical methods for the analysis of ground penetrating radar in the frequency and time domain will be developed. Simple mathematical models in plasma physics for the rocket thruster will be used.
