Modeling humans with tibial implants reveals electromagnetic risks from wireless power transfer, indicating needed safety assessments.
Wireless power transfer (WPT) offers a safe and convenient charging solution for electric vehicles (EVs). However, electromagnetic exposure may pose risks to humans, especially with metallic implants. This paper builds an EV-WPT model and a human anatomical model with tibial implants to analyze induced fields. Using Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE), the uncertainties of tissue properties and implant positions are quantified. Results show field concentration near implant edges and provide a probabilistic safety assessment.
