An exact solution is given for the electromagnetic induction in a dipping dike of finite conductivity, represented as a thin half‐sheet in a nonconducting surrounding. The problem is formulated for arbitrary dipole or circular loop [Formula: see text] configurations. The formal solution obtained by the Wiener‐Hopf technique is cast into a rapidly convergent triple integral suitable for an effective numerical treatment. A good agreement is found between numerical results and analog measurements available for harmonic excitation. The transient response is obtained as a superposition of the half‐sheet free‐decay modes and is illustrated by some numerical examples for coincident loops, including a diagram for the approximate determination of conductance and depth of a vertical dike.

The Wire

The wire loop method of the transient electromagnetic (TEM) method is used to nondestructively detect conductor breaks of grounding grid. For this purpose, grounding grids serve as an underground wire loop, and the measuring points are arranged on the ground. At each measuring point, a receiving loop is employed to detect the electromagnetic response generated by transmitting the current of the transmitting loop. Conductor breaks can be diagnosed by analyzing the slices of the electromagnetic response. We study the effect of loop size and height difference through the simulation of an intact 2×2 grounding grid, confirming that it is easier to obtain the topological structure using a small transmitting loop and a small height difference. Furthermore, simulations of an intact 4×4 grounding grid and grids with different locations of conductor breaks are also conducted with a small transmitting loop. It is easy to distinguish the topological structure of the grounding grid and the locations of conductor breaks. Finally, the detection method is applied experimentally. The experimental results confirm that the proposed method is an effective technique for conductor break diagnosis.

To investigate the transient electromagnetic method of response characteristics in the tunnel geological prediction, the finite element numerical simulation of unfavorable geological body of different location, different resistivity sizes, different shapes, and different volume size were carried out by ANSYS finite element software. The results show that secondary electromagnetic field of different location of unfavorable geological body have same decay rate, when detection distance from 30m to 70m, transient electromagnetic responses are strongest, followed distance from 10m to 30m and from 70m to 90m. The shape, volume and resistivity of unfavorable geological body have strong influence on transient electromagnetic response, unfavorable geological body more sleek, the greater the volume and the smaller the resistivity of unfavorable geological body, the secondary electromagnetic field decay slower.

The Time Domain

We present a numerical method for solving Maxwell’s equations in the case of an arbitrary two‐dimensional resistivity distribution excited by an infinite current line. The electric field is computed directly in the time domain. The computations are carried out in the lower half‐space only because exact boundary conditions are used on the free surface. The algorithm follows the finite‐element approach, which leads (after space discretization) to an equation system with a sparse matrix. Time stepping is done with an implicit time scheme. At each time step, the solution of the equation system is provided by the fast system ICCG(0). The resulting algorithm produces good results even when large resistivity contrasts are involved. We present a test of the algorithm’s performance in the case of a homogeneous earth. With a reasonable grid, the relative error with respect to the analytical solution does not exceed 1 percent, even 2 s after the source is turned off.

The Magnetic Field

Analytic expressions for the quasi‐static electromagnetic response of a sphere in presence of unit‐step and ramp‐type time varying magnetic fields are derived. The conductivity inside the sphere is assumed to vary linearly with radius, i.e. [Formula: see text], where ρ is radial coordinate, [Formula: see text] is a constant and a is the radius of sphere. Curves showing the decay of the magnetic field for both types of fields are presented. In the case of ramp‐type applied magnetic field, the magnitudes of maxima of the induced magnetic field are found to decrease with increase in the rise time of the applied field and, hence, exciting pulses having small values of rise time should be used. It is believed that the analysis will be useful in the geoelectric exploration for highly conducting mineral deposits.
