Does the FDTD solver support SAR calculations? I have been using MoM for SAR calculations and have attempted to set up my models in the same way with FDTD and am getting errors saying that SAR is not supported with the FDTD solver.
Hi Sutton
FDTD does not yet support SAR.
Are you trying FDTD to compare with MoM?
Yes, and in addition I would like to start simulating more complex geometries, like realistic human head phantoms, for which I understand FDTD is more efficient. It sounds like I will need to find a different simulation software to accomplish this?
The hybrid FEM/MoM is well suited for SAR.
See the Example Guide example F1 'Exposure of Muscle Tissue Using the MoM/FEM Hybrid
For human phantoms, Altair Connect has a couple of phantoms for free download.
Thanks for the info. That helps a lot!
