Abstract

Summary

The electromagnetic response of a conductive sphere excited by an alternating magnetic field has been a traditionally important problem. In this study, for calculation of general solution in frequency domain of a conductive sphere in a magnetic dipole field, coordinates rotation and continued fraction expansion are applied. Coordinates rotation for transmitter and receiver location, respectively produces very fast and simple calculation process. The precise results are allowed for more wide range of response function with continued fraction expansion. This enhanced algorithm could be applied to examine the result of numerical modeling like FEM. It also can be quite helpful for in-situ application at fast speed on interpretation which can sweep large minefield and borehole 3D modelling.
