Effect of profile angle and strike extent of the vertical sheet in one loop transient induction method (modelling)

Abstract

The effect of (a) profile angle b with respect to the strike, and (b) the limited strike extent of a vertical sheet conductor on the response of one loop transient induction method was studied by physical modelling. The results indicate that 95% of the maximum response can be obtained when b = 85°, while at least 40% of the maximum response can be obtained if the edge of the sheet conductor is covered by 0.5 L of the loop.
