The transport and magnetic properties in ferromagnetic manganese-oxide thin films are studied based on the model of the coupling between the mobile d-electrons and the core spins in Mn ions. The spontaneous magnetization and the resistivity are obtained for various magnetic fields and temperature. The resistivity in absence of magnetic field and the magnetoresistance exhibit maxima near the Cur...

Spinal stimulation for neuropathic treatment was modeled by incorporating and inhibitory junctions and a volume conductor into Hodgkin-Huxley and Frankenhaeuser-Huxley axon models. Results indicate successful merging of the models at low resistivity values but also show that these two mechanisms operate independently of one another. At high resistivity values, the model no longer produces relia...

a detailed standard magnetotelluric (mt) study was conducted to recognize brine bearing layers in depths of less than 2000 m in the northeast of iran close to the southeastern shore of the caspian sea. long and medium period natural-field mt methods have proved very useful for subsurface mapping purpose by determining the resistivity of the near surface structure. mt data were analyzed and mode...

The calculation of apparent resistivities, based on the model of a homogeneous half-space, is commonly the first step in Ž . order to evaluate helicopter electromagnetic HEM data. Due to the increase in frequencies used in HEM systems, survey results are not only displayed as apparent resistivity maps but also as cross-sections that require resistivity and depth information. After a brief descr...

Koyna region is well-known for its triggered seismic activities since the hazardous earthquake of M = 6.3 occurred around the Koyna reservoir on 10 December 1967. Understanding the shallow distribution of resistivity pattern in such a seismically critical area is vital for mapping faults, fractures and lineaments. However, deducing true resistivity distribution from the apparent resistivity dat...

S U M M A R Y We propose a new, simple and efficient method to image electrical resistivity between a set of wells. Our procedure consists of two steps: first, we map the interfaces between various subsurface formations using seismoelectric conversions; second, we derive the formation resistivity using image-guided cross-well electric tomography. In the first step, we focus seismic energy at a ...

The three-dimensional distribution of fluids and melts under the NE Japan arc was imaged using its resistivity structure, modeled with geomagnetic transfer functions. The data were collected at 37 stations located on a 20-km grid, at periods ranging from 16 to 256 s. In spite of the narrow period band nature, these periods turn out to be sensitive to conductors in the deep crust and upper mantl...

Conceptual models of aquifer systems can be refined and complemented with geophysical data, and they can assist in understanding hydrogeological properties such as groundwater storage capacity. This research attempts to use geoelectrical methods, Electrical Resistivity Tomography and Induced Polarization parameters, for mapping the subsurface in alluvial fans and to demonstrate its applicabilit...

The flow resistivity tensor, which is the inverse of the viscous permeability tensor, is one of the most important material properties for the acoustic performance of open cell foams, used in acoustic treatments. Due to the manufacturing processes, these foams are most often geometrically anisotropic. This paper discusses the estimation of the flow resistivity tensor using an improvement of a p...

High density electrical prospecting has been widely used in groundwater investigation, civil engineering and environmental survey. For efficient inversion, the forward modeling routine, sensitivity calculation, and inversion algorithm must be efficient. This paper attempts to provide a brief summary of the past and ongoing developments of the method. It includes reviews of the procedures used f...
