However, its high mutual inductance coupling and long turn-off time affect the quality of later data processing and interpretation. Compared with multiturn coils, the new conical source has low mutual inductance and short turn-off time. Based on the superposition principle, we use Hankel transform and numerical filtering method for forward modelling of the conical source field in the layered-media and explore TEM characteristics excited by this source. We apply improved damped least square inversion to integrated transient electromagnetic(TEM) data. We first invert the induced voltage into similar resistivity and apparent depth, and then use the inverted results as input parameters in the initial model and transform the apparent resistivity data into the frequency domain. Then, damped least square inversion is performed in the frequency domain using the initial model. Subsequently, we use automated model building to search for the extremes and inflection points in the resistivity–depth data that are treated as critical layer parameters. The inversion of theoretical and observed data suggests that the method modifies the resistivity and depth and yields a model of the underground layers.展开更多

The main causes of this flooding are water-conducting fractured zones within coal seams. However, when resistivity methods are used to detect water-conducting fractured zones in coal seams, incorrect conclusions can be drawn because of electrical anisotropy within the water-conducting fractured zones. We present, in this paper, a new geo-electrical model based on the geology of water-conducting fractured zones in coal seams. Factors that influence electrical anisotropy were analyzed, including formation water resistivity, porosity, fracture density, and fracture surface roughness, pressure, and dip angle. Numerical simulation was used to evaluate the proposed electrical method. The results demonstrate a closed relationship between the shape of apparent resistivity and the strike and dip of a fracture. Hence, the findings of this paper provide a practical resistivity method for coal-mining production.展开更多

For a fixed offset, the amplitude A of the reflection P-wave and the cosine of 2φ has an approximately linear relation, (φ is the source-detector azimuth with respect to the fracture strike. Based on this relationship, many things can be done, such as the extraction of macro bins, the correction of residual normal moveout, the formation of azimuth gather, the transformation and normalization of azimuth gathers and the extraction of reflection wave amplitudes of coal seams. The least squares method was used to inverse theoretically the direction and density of fractures of coal seams. The result is in good agreement with the regional geological structure, indicating that the azimuth anisotropic analysis of the P-wave is feasible in evaluating the density and direction of fractures in coal seams.展开更多

Although the approximate solution by Rtiger is suitable for thick reservoirs, it has some limitations for the composite reflected wave from both roofs and floors of coal seams, as well as multiple reflections. So first, the phase velocity and group velocity as well as their travel time were calculated about the reflected P-wave of the coal seam. Then, the anisotropic coefficients of both roofs and floors were calculated by Rueger formulae and last, the section versus azimuth in fixed offset can be gotten by convolution. In addition, the relation of amplitude of the composite reflected wave to azimuth angle was discussed. The forward modelling results of the coal azimuth anisotropy show these： 1） the coal seam is the strong reflecting layer, but the change of the reflectivity caused by the azimuth anisotropy is smaller; 2） if the azimuth angle is parallel to the crack strike, the reflectivity reaches up to the maximum absolute value, however, if the azimuth angle is perpendicular to the crack strike, the absolute value of the reflection coefficient is minimum; and 3）the reflection coefficient is the cosine function of the azimuth angle and the period is π.展开更多
