Abstract

A computer model for the interpretation of soil resistivity measurement data collected in the vicinity of grounding systems B. Handziski2, V. Handziski' V. Dimcev2 & P.

Ideally, soil resistivity measurements should be made in the absence of buried metallic structures and interpreted by computer models tailored for that purpose. However, there are cases when the soil resistivity measurements have to be made in the presence of grounding systems and to be interpreted by the computer models tailored to take into account the influence of the metallic structures. This paper presents a methodology and a computer model tailored to interpret this
