Stepan Baley's Contribution to Solving the Mind-Body Problem

The article analyses the approach of Ukrainian and Polish philosopher, psychologist, educator, and doctor Stepan Baley to solving the mind-body problem. Stefan Baley’s contribution to solving the mind-body problem was analysed from the perspective of the philosophical tradition in which he was formed under the direct influence of Kazimierz Twardowski and the indirect impact of Franz Brentano, as well as in light of contemporary discussions surrounding the naturalisation programme in the philosophy of mind.

Radio frequency resonances inside a human head

RF equipment compliance tests employ electromagnetic field calculation in a head phantom to derive Specific Absorption Rate values. We have hypo­thesized that a biological tissue in certain conditions could act like a dielectric resonator hence affecting the field estimation. To study the resonance effects in a human head, we have formulated an eigenfrequency problem for a structurally realistic 2D human head phantom and solved it by the finite element method. The results have revealed 124 underdamped eigen­frequencies within a 0,2–2 GHz frequency band.
