potential field methods such as gravity and magnetic methods are among the most applied geophysical methods in mineral exploration. a high-resolution technique is developed to image geologic boundaries such as contacts and faults. potential field derivatives are the basis of many interpretation techniques. in boundary detection, the analytic signal quantity is defined by combining the val...

Horizontal directional derivatives and sunshading are two commonly used gradient-based filters for enhancing linear features in potential field data. The Tilt angle is a useful filter that produces an amplitude-balanced vertical derivative. The disadvantage of the Tilt angle-based filters is that they require the computation of the vertical derivative of the data, which as well as making the fi...

potential fields are due to complex distribution of sources related to susceptibility and mass density variations for magnetic and gravity field respectively. in researching the lateral heterogeneous of different geological bodies, in particular their edge location potential field has some advantages. we mainly refer to linear features such as fault, folding axis, dyke, trend and border of the ...

ground penetrating radar (gpr) and magnetic methods were used at ghasr-e-shirin town in kermanshah province, southwest of iran for detecting a series of large ancient (ca 1500 years) underground cavities (tagh). the area of study is a historical monument which is named as emarat e khosro. radar and total intensity magnetic field measurements have been done on the eastern part of the complex, wh...

Magnetic instruments such as cross-wing gradiometers, vertical gradiometers and full tensor SQUID magnetometers presented challenges for geological interpretation and geophysical inversion. In particular, the full tensor magnetometer presents many new challenges for an interpreter where only the vertical derivative of the vertical magnetic component presents a useful geological analogue for vis...

It is well established that the free-space Green's function can be recovered from the two-point cross-correlation function of a random noise field if the noise is white and isotropic. Ambient noise in the ocean rarely satisfies either of these conditions. However, a non-uniform spectrum could be pre-whitened by the application of a suitable filter but anisotropy cannot be so readily eliminated....

Effects of the uniform transverse magnetic field on the transient free convective flows of a nanofluid with generalized thermal transport between two vertical parallel plates have been analyzed. The fluid temperature is described by a time-fractional differential equation with Caputo derivatives. Closed form of the temperature field is obtained by using the Laplace transform and fractional deri...

We have investigated gravity anomalies around the Niigata plain, which is a sedimentary basin in central Japan bounded by mountains, to examine the continuity of subsurface fault structures of a large fault zone—the eastern boundary fault zone of the Niigata plain (EBFZNP). The features of the Bouguer anomaly and its first horizontal and vertical derivatives clearly illustrate the EBFZNP. The s...

Abstract The use of dead reckoning and fingerprint matching for navigation is a widespread technical method. However, mismatching low fusion accuracy are prevalent issues in indoor systems. This work presents an improved dynamic time warping chicken particle filter to handle these two challenges. To generate the Horizontal Vertical (HV) fingerprint, pitch roll employed instead original intensit...
