Abstract

A

A method is given for solving the dc electric field problem of a point current source in an anisotropic 2 1/2‐dimensional structural model. The surface integral equation of the field strength is given. Parallel to the strike the field strength is represented by a Fourier series. On the plane perpendicular to the strike each term of the field strength series is solved by means of the method of sub‐sections, where linear behaviour of field strength over the sub‐sections is assumed. Some numerical examples for different galvanic effects are given.
