This paper describes large-scale full-wave analyses of electromagnetic fields using numerical human body models. This is achieved by the use of the parallel finite element method with iterative domain decomposition. Numerical examples of FDTD analysis using numerical human model by a High Performance Computing (HPC) are shown in previous researches. However, numerical examples and performance evaluation of the finite element method hardly exists. Therefore, we perform a feasibility study and a detailed performance evaluation of the high-frequency electromagnetic field analysis using the numerical human model on a super computer constituting Japan’s High Performance Computing Infrastructure (HPCI) as a numerical simulation infrastructure so as to extract problems for advancement of the future analysis. The numerical human body models provided by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) in Japan are composed of voxel data with all sides of 2mm and include skin layers, blood vessels, bones, internal organs, etc. distinguished by material properties. By using HPC, the user can evaluate the electromagnetic filed distribution inside the whole body model.
