This book examines the human auditory effects of exposure to beams of high-power microwave pulses, which research results have shown can cause a cascade of health events when aimed at a human subject or the subject’s head. The book details multidisciplinary investigations using physical theories and models, physiological events and phenomena, and computer analysis and simulation. Coverage includes brain anatomy and physiology, dosimetry of microwave power deposition, microwave auditory effect, interaction mechanisms, and shock/pressure wave induction. The book will be welcomed by scientists, academics, health professionals, and practicing engineers as an important contribution to the continuing study of the effects of microwave pulse absorption on humans.
This book examines the human auditory effects of exposure to directed beams of high-power microwave pulses, which research results have shown can cause a cascade of health events when aimed at a human subject or the subject’s head. The book details multidisciplinary investigations using physical theories and models, physiological events and phenomena, and computer analysis and simulation. Coverage includes brain anatomy and physiology, dosimetry of microwave power deposition, microwave auditory effect, interaction mechanisms, shock/pressure wave induction, Havana syndrome, and application in microwave thermoacoustic tomography (MTT). The book will be welcomed by scientists, academics, health professionals, government officials, and practicing biomedical engineers as an important contribution to the continuing study of the effects of microwave pulse absorption on humans.
Discusses human auditory effects of exposure to high-power microwave pulses; Includes detailed analysis of multidisciplinary investigations and applied aspects such as Havana syndrome and MTT; Written by a pioneering researcher and leading global expert on bioelectromagnetics and microwave auditory effects.
