Sažetak
The paper reviews certain integral equation approaches and related numerical methods used in studies of biomedical applications of electromagnetic fields pertaining to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and nerve fiber stimulation. TMS is analyzed by solving the set of coupled surface integral equations (SIEs), while the numerical solution of governing equations is carried out via Method of Moments (MoM) scheme. A myelinated nerve fiber, stimulated by a current source, is represented by a straight thin wire antenna. The model is based on the corresponding homogeneous Pocklington integro-differential equation solved by means of the Galerkin Bubnov Indirect Boundary Element Method (GB-IBEM). Some illustrative numerical results for the TMS induced fields and intracellular current distribution along the myelinated nerve fiber (active and passive), respectively, are presented in the paper. This research was previously published in the International Journal of E-Health and Medical Communications (IJEHMC), 9(1) ; edited by Joel J.P.C. Rodrigues ; pages 65-84 ; copyright year 2018 by IGI Publishing (an imprint of IGI Global).
