We have developed a mathematical model describing the sounding process with a pulsed electromagnetic field source in a 3D region complex in physical parameters and geometric structure. For its time discretization, the time Fourier transform is used. Through the vector finite element method, we have obtained a discrete analogue in spatial coordinates of the original problem. The simulation examples are provided.

The article is devoted to the problem of studying permafrost state and the processes of its geocryological changes using geophysical methods. To monitor the cryolithozone, a method of pulsed electromagnetic cross-well sounding is proposed. On the basis of the vector finite element method, a mathematical model of the cross-well sounding process by a pulsed source in a three-dimensional spatially inhomogeneous medium has been created.

This paper is dedicated to the topical problem of examining permafrost’s state and the processes of its geocryological changes by means of geophysical methods. To monitor the cryolithozone, we proposed and scientifically substantiated a new technique of pulsed electromagnetic cross-well sounding. Based on the vector finite-element method, we created a mathematical model of the cross-well sounding process with a pulsed source in a three-dimensional spatially heterogeneous medium. A high-performance parallel computing algorithm was developed and verified. Through realistic geoelectric models of permafrost with a talik under a highway, constructed following the results of electrotomography field data interpretation, we numerically simulated the pulsed sounding on the computing resources of the Siberian Supercomputer Center of SB RAS. The simulation results suggest the proposed system of pulsed electromagnetic cross-well monitoring to be characterized by a high sensitivity to the presence and dimensions of the talik. The devised approach can be oriented to addressing a wide range of issues related to monitoring permafrost rocks under civil and industrial facilities, buildings, and constructions.

Ground-based, electrical-source, and UAV-borne receiver TEM configurations have previously been used to map mines in Jiangsu Province, China. In this study, the EM responses of air-filled mine tunnels were simulated by using a three-dimensional (3D) vector finite element method. A new apparent resistivity formula has been proposed for the ground-airborne TEM configuration. In the study area, field measurements were carried out along 36 profiles for the ground-airborne TEM and 16 profiles for ground TEM. The ground-airborne TEM results were determined to be in good agreement with the ground TEM survey results using a surface central loop, and were also consistent with the known geologic conditions. The experiment was successful and showed that a ground-ground-airborne TEM method could potentially become a novel alternative for both future civilian and military applications. [Figure: see text]
