| Abstract | Application of t h e finite element method to solve the resistivity problem is first studied. Th e area of calculation which gives sufficient accurate electric potential distribution is first studied by comparing finite element approximate solutions with t h e exact solutions. The accuracy of finite element solutions are confirmed. It is found t h at sufficiently accurate solution Caribe obtained even t he area is rather small . Application of finite element method to more complicated layered system is al so studied, and sufficient results are obtained. The finite element is combined with the inverse analysis procedure. Through the numerical experiments carried o u t, it is f o und t h at t his procedure h as much potential to solve reconstruction of subsurface image problem. It is found that he important factors in the inverse analysis procedure are t h at number of layers , initial values set and size of given data . |
