Rapid three-dimensional (3-D) source location methods can be extremely useful in framing a subsurface structural model from gravity or magnetic data. However, existing implementations of Euler deconvolution are limited to a single source in each window. This can be a significant limitation in areas of complex structure. We have generalized the method to the multiple-source case, and implemented the 3-D algorithm. Results from synthetic data and from the Gold Acres mining district in Nevada suggest that the new algorithm can be a useful interpretive tool.

The paper presents an improved algorithm based on Bhaskara Rao and Ramesh Babu’s algorithm to invert magnetic anomalies of three-dimensional basement structures. The magnetic basement is approximated by an ensemble of juxtaposed vertical prisms whose bottom surface coincides with Curie surface with the known depth. The computer program operating with the proposed algorithm is built in Matlab environment. Test applications show that the proposed method can perform computations with fast and stable convergence rate where the results also coincide well with the actual model structure. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated by inverting magnetic anomalies of the southeast part of Vietnam continental shelf. The calculated magnetic basement relief of the study area provides useful additional information for studies in the aim of dealing with the geological structure of the area.References Beiki M., 2010.

Abstract. This paper deals the application of Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and Euler deconvolution methods to estimate the source depth using magnetic anomalies. These methods are utilised mainly to focus on the fundamental issue for mapping the major coal seam and locating magnetic lineaments. These methods are tested and demonstrated on synthetic data and finally applied on field data from Jharia coal field. Prepared magnetic anomaly map that reflects clear tectonics control and nature of the underlying basement, demarcation of the basin, geological faults by steep gradients of magnetic anomaly. Analysis suggests that the CWT have a great utility in the magnetic data interpretation and the correlation between magnetic anomalies and geological features such as faults/joints and intrusive bodies over the basin. The CWT provides the consistent and reliable depth of the underlying basement with the results of Euler deconvolution and Tiltdepth methods without any priory information that is correlated well with borehole samples (Raja Rao, 1987). One of the fundamental issues is to detect differences in susceptibility and density between rocks that contain ore deposits or hydrocarbons or coal. These differences are reflected in the gravity and magnetic anomalies and also delineation of structural features, which are interpreted using several techniques (Blakely and Simpson, 1986). One of the most important objective in the interpretation of potential field data is to improve the resolution of underlying source, delineating lateral change in magnetic susceptibilities that provides information not only on lithological changes but also on structural trends. Especially, mapping the edges of causative bodies is fundamental to the application of potential field data to geological mapping. The edge detection techniques are used to distinguish between different sizes and different depths of the geological discontinuities (Cooper and Cowan 2006, 2008; Perez et al. 2005; Ardestani 2010; Hsu et al. 1996, 2002; Holschneider et al., 2003). The derivatives of magnetic data are used to enhance the edges of anomalies and improve significantly the visibility of such features. Sedimentary layer dominates the gravity and magnetic signature over Jharia Coal field (Verma et al., 1973, 1976, 1979). Thus the difference between the depths estimated using Euler deconvolution method (EDM) (Thompson 1982; Reid et al. 1990) and Tilt Depth Method (TDM) technique (Salem et al., 2007; Cooper 2004, 2011) may help to detect the thickness of the coalbed. Wavelet transform and Euler deconvolution method has been theoretically demonstrated on magnetic data. These methods provide source parameters such as the location, depth, geometry of geological bodies and interfaces in an easy and effective way. However, it may be more difficult to characterize the source properties in cases of extended sources (Sailhac et al., 2009). These methods executed over Jharia coal field, Dhanbad, India. This area forms an east west trending belt of Gondwana basin of Damodar valley at the north eastern part of India. This study region is mostly coal rich area of Gondwana basin. Analysis on Jharia coal field suggests that the magnetic anomalies provide encouraging results which are well correlated with available gravity data and some borehole informations.

We describe the application of a 2D-constrained grid Euler deconvolution method which is able to determine for each solution window whether the source structure is two dimensional, three dimensional, or poorly defined and to estimate the source location and depth. In each solution window, eigenvalues and eigenvectors are derived from the Euler equations and compared to threshold levels. A single eigenvalue below the given threshold and lying in the x–y-plane is shown to indicate a 2D source, while the absence of such an eigenvalue indicates a 3D source geometry. Two small eigenvalues indicate the field in the window has no distinct source. Applying these criteria to each solution window allows us to generate a map of source-geometry distribution. We evaluate the effectiveness of 2D-constrained grid Euler deconvolution using synthetic magnetic data generated from a 3D basement model based on real topography from an area with surface-exposed faulting. This modeling strategy provides a complex, nonidealized data set that compares Euler depth estimates directly to the known basement surface depth. Our results indicate that noninteger structural indices can be the most appropriate choice for some data sets, and the 2D-constrained grid Euler method images magnetic basement structure more clearly and unambiguously than the conventional grid Euler method.

Abstract The effect of a simulated glaze ice accretion on the flow field of a three-dimensional wing is studied experimentally. A PC-based data acquisition and reduction system was used with a four-beam two-color fiber-optic laser Doppler velocimeter (LDV) to map the flow field along three spanwise cuts on the model. Results of the LDV measurements on the upper surface of the finite wing model without the simulated glaze ice accretion are presented for α = 0 degrees at Reynolds number of 1.5 million. Measurements on the centerline of the clean model compared favorably with theory.
