In this paper, the safety for passengers of composite car-body against lightning strikes was analyzed by the application of an impulse generator which can produce impulse current up to 50 kA with 8/$20{\mu}s$ waveform. Potential difference on inside surface of the car-body was measured as a safety parameter for the passengers against lightning strikes. The potential difference between 20 em distant was 175 V at 37.67 kA, and it corresponds to 875 V between 1 m distant. The amount of charge flowing a passenger at 100 kA impulse current can be estimated to $0.31\;mA{\cdot}s$. This is much less than the limit amount of charge for human body, $30\;mA{\cdot}s$ which is presented by Koeppen and Osypka.

This study presents a hazard assessment of the human body exposed to electic shock considering various parameters which affect severity of the electric shock. The present study has two research objectives; one is no analyze hazards of the human body by the elctric shock both on the ground and in the water. The other is to understand the mechnism of the electric shock. In order to achieve these objectives the hazard of shock is estimated by comparing with physiological effects of electric curren througn the human body according to variation of shock parameters of shock circuits. The shock parameters adopted in this paper consist of body resistance, resistance of protective equipment, ground resistance, shock duration, depth of gound surface layer, relection factor, permissible touch voltage, body current and body voltage. Besides, safety standard determining hazard degree of the human body is introduced. And hazard of the human body due to the electric shock is quantitatibely assessed in consideration of data obtained by the method suggested herein, and final results are presented and discussed.

Safety related to electric field exposure for the personnel of high voltage power plant and substation is of importance. To analyze the induced current influencing on human body in this paper, we calculate directly capacitance in three dimension which is complex and time consuming, as not to separate the voltage source and the induced object using a effective modeling technique. The proposed algorithm in this paper has been applied to 765 kV high voltage transmission line to evaluate human hazard for the induced current through the case study. As the results, the short circuit current of human body has been identified in the range of 0.3 mA to 6.8 mA. Closing to transmission line, this range of short current can exceed 5 mA that ANSI recommended let-go current. Therefore, it is necessary to countermeasure such as putting on conductive clothing in live-line maintenance of transmission line.

The occurrence of the ventricular fibrillation is directly dependent on the magnitude and duration of the current. The current which flows through the human body is proportional to the touch voltage applied across the body and is in inverse proportion to the impedances in the circuit. The circuit impedances consist of human body impedance, line impedance, equipment impedance, earth terminal impedance and impedance of shoes which a person put on. The impedance of shoes greatly affect the severity of the electric accidents. The human body impedances relevant to the contact areas, contact conditions, current paths and touch voltages are already determined in the IEC 60479-1. However, the impedance of shoes is ignored or substituted by a simple value because of the absence of the sufficient data. For example, the impedance of shoes plus ground contact resistance is postulated to be $1,000{\Omega}$ in the IEC 61200-612. In IEEE 80, the shoe resistance plus ground contact resistance is assumed to be bare foot with ${\rho}/4b{\Omega}$. In this paper, we measured and analyzed the impedance of shoes with respect to conditions such as applied weight, environment variables and voltages. The results showed that the impedance of shoes is dependent on environment variables regardless of the types of shoes. Most of shoes showed the correlation with the applied force, whereas a few shoes showed characteristics related to the applied voltage. In terms of severity of electric shock, one thirds of test samples indicated to be dangerous in saltwater conditions.

The human body is structured as sentence of healing. This study examines how the mechanism of healing works in the human body by the narrative relation of functor and argument. So, we predict the way of extreme healing by literary or human narrative. For this purpose, we analyze the principle that the emotional and semantic arguments are called by the functor set by the sentences containing the fingerprints of mind in Gosijo and the mechanism of healing works extensively. We analyze the process of the transition from the narrative of the literary to the narrative of the human body. Thus, the barcode of the healing, which is made up of the relationship between the functor of the literature and the argument, is transferred to the human body and it is judged that the fingerprint of the human mind is operated through the stage of encoding and re-encoding due to the action potential. In addition, it was predicted that the neurotransmitters such as dopamine and the secretion of hormones would be promoted and the healing level would be increased. In results, we conclude that the function of argument and functor which contains the fingerprint of the mind in the third sound step on the last sentence of Gosijo is transferred to the human body and is especially heavily focused and operate with healing.

A study on the characteristics of electric shock in fresh water due to the leakage of submerged electric facility is conducted by using a reduced scale model at a scale of 1:10 in laboratory. Electric potential as a function of distance from leakage source, type of the leakage source, magnitude of the source voltage, submerged depth and diameter of a copper rod electrode is measured. On the basis of safety standard, separation for guarantee of safety is determined by the measured potential. Also supposing that body resistance is 500［$\Omega$］, the human reaction was estimated by calculating body current for some shock duration. Thus, in this paper, the hazard of the electric shock is assessed by introducing representative safety factors, body voltage and body current due to leakage source.

This study made a testing device to evaluate the distribution board management system. Power was supplied to the testing device using a loading-back method and the voltage applied to it was 440 V at the same turn ratio. When the human body electric shock current is 30 mA, the breaking time is set to be less than 240 ms while 30~45 mA current is flowing. The test result shows that in the case of the R-phase it was measured to be 5.19 Hz (193 ms). And the S-phase and T-phase were perfectly cut off at 5.39 Hz (186 ms) and 5.71 Hz (175 ms), respectively. When the human body electric shock current is 60mA, the breaking time is set to be less than 120 ms while 45~75 mA current is flowing. The test result shows that the R-phase, S-phase, and T-phase were accurately cut off at 8.39 Hz (11 ms), 8.87Hz (113 ms) and 9.69 Hz (103 ms), respectively. When the human body electric shock current is 90 mA, the breaking time is set to be less than 48 ms while 75 mA current is flowing. The test result shows that the R-phase, S-phase, and T-phase were accurately cut off at 19.8 Hz (50.4 ms), 16.9 Hz (59.2 ms), and 17.9 Hz (56.0 ms), respectively. That is, the developed testing device satisfied all the requirements of the distribution board evaluation criteria, and it becomes available for the performance evaluation of the distribution board management system.

There are many researches on human effect by electromagnetic equipments and applications. However, most of research and guidelines for limiting human exposure to electromagnetic fields are established by mobile communication of SAR(Specific Absorption Ratio). Therefore we need to study different effects on human body when exposed to high frequency(HF) band equipments, such as human induced current etc. In this paper, we measured human induced current by RFID reader antenna of HF band in the near field and we propose human equivalent antenna which has orthogonal loops to each other. Then, we compared the induced currents on proposed equivalent antenna with human.
