Electromagnetic response on a half-space earth with a positively skewed bulge conductivity

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the construction of a mathematical model of electromagnetic response of a half-space earth with a positively skewed bulge conductivity. The conductivity of ground is a function of depth. Integral expressions are applied, and the Hankel transform is introduced to solve the electric field. Numerical solutions are computed to show graphically the behaviors of the electric field. The responses of electric field are dominated by a positively skewed bulge conductivity ground profile. © 2013 by CESER Publications.
