geoana.em.tdem.TransientPlaneWave

class geoana.em.tdem.TransientPlaneWave(amplitude=1.0, orientation='X', **kwargs)

Class for simulating the fields for a transient planewave in a wholespace. The wave is assumed to be propogating vertically downward.

Parameters:

amplitudefloat

amplitude of primary electric field. Default is 1

orientation(3) array_like or {‘X’,’Y’}

Orientation of the planewave. Can be defined using as an array_like of length 3, or by using one of {‘X’,’Y’} to define a planewave along the x or y direction. Default is ‘X’.

Attributes

amplitude	Amplitude of the primary field.
diffusion_distance	Compute diffusion distance for a plane wave in a homogeneous electromagnetic media.
epsilon	Dielectric permittivity in F/m
mu	Magnetic permeability in H/m
orientation	Orientation of the planewave as a normalized vector
sigma	Electrical conductivity in S/m
theta	Analog to wavenumber in the frequency domain.
time	Time (s) used for all computations

Methods
