Hope this helps. We work as consultants on electrocutions and electrical
accidents and have spent a lot of time digging up articles about
electrocutions and the physiological effects. One good paper entitled
"Physical mechanisms of tissue injury in electric trauma" was published in
IEEE Trans. on Educ. Vol 34., No. 3, August 1991. Other papers published
in the 40s and 50s by Charles F. Dalziel and W.B. Kouwenhoven in some of
the IEEE and AIEE publications seem to be the most cited references used
in many of the more recent articles. If you need more information please
feel free to e-mail me. Good Luck.
