Input Parameters Specification

Electric Field RMS (E) Root-mean-square magnitude strength parameter of the active electromagnetic field wave, measured in Volts per meter (V/m).
Material Conductivity (σ) The electrical induction conductivity index coefficient of the targeted biological material or tissue layer, in Siemens per meter (S/m).
Mass Density (ρ) The physical mass density profile distribution index of the structural target medium layer, natively scaling in kg/m³.

Practical Operational Examples

Example 1: Standard Low-Exposure Tissue Model
• Electric Field RMS (E) = 10.00 V/m | Material Conductivity = 0.65 S/m
• Tissue Mass Density = 1020.00 kg/m³
• Calculated SAR Result: 0.063725 W/kg | Incident Power Density: 0.265252 W/m²
Example 2: High RF Field Exposure Scenario
• Electric Field RMS (E) = 60.00 V/m | Material Conductivity = 1.20 S/m
• Tissue Mass Density = 1050.00 kg/m³
• Calculated SAR Result: 4.114286 W/kg | Incident Power Density: 9.549072 W/m²

Formulas & Mathematical Logic

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR Formulation):
SAR = σ × E² / ρ
Incident Power Density (IPD Formulation):
IPD = E² / 377

Where E represents the baseline Electric field RMS scale profile, σ establishes localized Material Conductivity thresholds, and ρ tracks tissue Mass Density bounds.
