Study of the influence of the magnetic field orientation using Polynomial Chaos decomposition applied to the pregnant woman exposure at 50 Hz

Summary The change of the orientation of the B-field vector respect to the human body is a parameter to take into account for the estimation of the variability of the human exposure. The deterministic dosimetry would be too much time consuming to perform this analysis. In this paper the stochastic dosimetry is applied to the analysis of the pregnant woman exposure at 7 months of gestational age, to build-up a statistical meta-model of the induced electric field for each fetal tissue and in the fetal whole-body by means of the Polynomial Chaos expansion as a function of the B-field orientation, considering a uniform exposure at 50 Hz.
