Forward problem in 3D magnetic induction tomography (MIT)

Simulation of the forward problem in Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) is one of the key issues in development of the technology of MIT. We simulate the process of measurement in MIT using an edge based finite element technique. We also present the simulation of this forward problem by a program, MAFIA based on finite integration technique. In both methods the same geometrical arrangements are simulated and results are compared.
