—We analyze the structure of the general solution of the two-dimensional electrical impedance equation in analytic form using Taylor series in formal powers, for the case when the conductivity is a separable-variables function only once derivable, using a quaternionic reformulation that leads us to a special kind of Vekua equation. Finally, we broach its applications in the eld of electrical im...

—Using a quaternionic reformulation of the threedimensional Electrical Impedance Equation, and a generalization of the Bers generating sets, as well as the Beltrami equation, we introduce a new class of exact solutions for the case when the conductivity is represented by a separable-variables function depending upon three spacial variables. Finally, we discuss the possible contribution of these...

We review developments, issues and challenges in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for the 4th Conference on Biomedical Applications of Electrical Impedance Tomography, held at Manchester in 2003. We focus on the necessity for three-dimensional data collection and reconstruction, efficient solution of the forward problem, and both present and future reconstruction algorithms. We also sugges...

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) as an imaging technique producing a 2D or 3D impedance image (conductivity or impedivity) of the subject under test. It can be used for delamination detection and evaluating the damage location, size, strain and severity for Structure Health Monitoring (SHM) of aerospace composites i.e. Carbon-fibrereinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. Keywords—Electrical I...

This work presents the application of a geostatistical-based modeling approach for building up electrical properties acquired from a geophysical electrical tomography survey deployed for the purpose of porphyry Cu exploration at the Takht-e-Gonbad deposit, in the central domain of Iran. Electrical data were inverted in 2D along several profiles across the main favorable zones of Cu-bearing mine...

in this study, focuses on applying the hp-version for forward modeling. the eit forward solver is normally based on the conventional finite element method (hfem). in h-fem, the polynomial order p of the element shape functions is constant and the element size h, is decreased. to accurately simulate the forward solution with the hfem, a mesh with large number of nodes and elements is usually need...
