Abstract
- In the urban environment, the transient electromagnetic method often suffers from severe electromagnetic interference because it employs coils to perceive the electromagnetic field. To address this issue, the DC method employs electrodes to shield the electromagnetic noise in the urban environment. In this paper, a new geophysical resistivity imaging sensing approach based on a DC inversion model is proposed to explore and identify the path of underground water to solve the water disaster problem. A real-world case study is carried out in Xinjiang Region. In order to investigate the underground water conducted path, an electrode network is designed and installed for the buildings of interest to collect the DC electrical current and DC electrical potential data. Then, the proposed method establishes a DC resistivity inversion model based on the forward theory and finite-volume technique to extract the geological information from the collected data and visualize the underground water conducted path. Different from existing popular numerical techniques, such as the finite element and finite difference, the finite-volume technique has clear theoretical explanations to make the obtained geological images understandable. As a result, the underground water path can be directly observed from the geological images calculated by the proposed approach to successfully identify and locate the underground water disaster in real-world applications.
