*2.3. Exposure Scenarios for Numerical Dosimetry*

Compared to [15], where a driver and a bystander were investigated (called exposure scenario #1 from here on), two further exposure scenarios, each consisting of two realistic anatomical models and two coil positions, have been considered, as illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, respectively. In particular, exposure scenario #2 consists of two adult males: one lying on the ground floor with a hand stretched towards the coils (worst-case scenario) and the other standing in front of the car. Exposure scenario #3 consists of two females: one child sleeping on the rear seats and one adult standing at the back of the car. All the anatomical human models are taken from the ViP 3.0 provided by the IT'IS Foundation (https://itis.swiss/virtual-population, accessed 26 October 2021), with a posable model for Duke lying on the floor.

Tissue dielectric properties of the human models were assigned from the IT'IS database [20], with the exception of the skin, where a higher conductivity value was adopted, as described in [21]. A uniform grid size of 2 mm was used to discretize the computational domain embedding the anatomical models (see Figures 2a and 3a).
