Abstract

In this paper, the direct time domain vector finite element method was used to forward three-dimensional transient electromagnetic fields excited by loop source. From Maxwell's equations met by time domain electromagnetic field we can directly export the double curl equations met by electric field, and then get the variation of electric field equations. Take backward difference to discrete the time item, after the element analysis for all units in the calculation area, and synthesize all units to get the stiffness matrix. The sparse matrix is stored by the CSR format. This work introduces the source current density into the double curl equations met by electric field. We use a trapezoidal waveform in the excitation source and taking the switch on-time, on-time and switch off-time into consideration. A loop source is added in modeling. In fact, this method makes the models arbitrarily complex in resistivity distribution. In the process of solving the equations, take the whole time zone segmentation process strategy, to take a unified iterative steps within the section to improve the computational efficiency. Then we use the direct time-domain vector finite element mothed to calculate and verify the uniform half-space model, shallow water undulating terrain model and the marine low resistance model
