Magnetotelluric (MT) survey investigates electrical structure of subsurface by measuring natural electromagnetic fields on the earth surface. For the accurate interpretation of MT data, the precise three-dimensional (3-D) modeling algorithm is prerequisite. Since MT responses are affected by electrical anisotropy of medium, the modeling algorithm has to incorporate the electrical anisotropy especially when analyzing time-lapse MT data sets, for monitoring engineered geothermal system (EGS) reservoir, because changes in different-vintage MT-data sets are small. This study developed a MT modeling algorithm for the simulation MT responses in the presence of electrical anisotropy by improving a pre-existing staggered-grid finite-difference MT modeling algorithm. After verifying the developed algorithm, we analyzed the effect of vertical transversely isotropic (VTI) anisotropy on MT responses. In addition, we are planning to extend the applicability of the developed algorithm which can simulate not only the horizontal transversely isotropic (HTI) anisotropy, but also the tiled transversely isotropic (TTI) anisotropy.

본 연구에서는 LCD패키지용 이방성 전도 필름의 전기적, 기계적 특성 및 신뢰성에 미치는 접속 변수의 영향을 연구하였다. 이방성 전도 필름을 통한 전기적 전도 현상을 각각의 도전 입자와 기판 사이의 기계적 접촉에 의해 접촉 방향으로만 전류가 흐르게 되는 것이 주되는 전도 기구이다. 따라서 접속 압력에 따라 각각의 도전 입자의 변형으로 기판 사이의 접촉 면적이 변하는데 이방성 전도필름의 접촉 저항은 이런 접촉 변화에 의해 결정된다. 접속 압력에 따라 초기에 접촉 저항은 감소하다가 점차 접촉 저항기가 안정화되는 거동을 보였다. 그러나 높은 접속 압력에서는 오히려 저항치가 약간 증가함을 보였다. 이방성 전도 필름 접속의 접착력을 평가하기 위해 필 테스트(peel test)를 시행하였는데, 접속 압력과 접속 온도를 증가 시킬수록 이방성 전도 필름 접속의 접착력을 평가하기 위해 고온 시효 시험, 온도 사이클링 시험, 고온 고습 시험의 신뢰성 시험을 시행하였으며, 이중 고온 고습 시험이 ACF접속의 전기적, 기계적 특성에 가장 악영향을 주었다. 또 큰 압력으로 접속된 것보다 작은 압력으로 접속되었을 때, 그리고 도전입자로는 금속 코팅 된 폴리머 입자가 사용될 때 신뢰성이 상대적으로 좋은 것을 발견했다.

Magnetotelluric responses may be affected by strong anisotropy of the high-conductivity layers (HCL) in the upper mantle or lower crust. We have studied two-dimensional anisotropy MT modelling to examine the effect of high anisotropic media. Electrical properties of a homogeneous anisotropic body are defined by a symmetric conductivity tensor and the problem is described by coupled diffusion equation in the frequency domain. In two-dimensional anisotropic environments, diagonal elements of the impedance tensor have higher values than those in isotropic environments. In some cases, TM mode phases reach more than 90°and apparent resistivities decrease for some frequency range because of telluric distortion. GB decomposition may be used to recover regional responses, but can be affected by the regional anisotropic effect. Considering these results, BC87 dataset was interpreted with a modified anisotropic model.

We have developed an inversion code for three-dimensional (3D) resistivity tomography including the anisotropy effect. The algorithm is based on the finite element approximations for the forward modelling and Active Constraint Balancing method is adopted to enhance the resolving power of the smoothness constraint least-squares inversion. Using numerical experiments, we have shown that anisotropic inversion is viable to get an accurate image of the subsurface when the subsurface shows strong electrical anisotropy. Moreover, anisotropy can be used as additional information in the interpretation of subsurface. This algorithm was also applied to the field dataset acquired in the abandoned old mine area, where a high-rise apartment block has been built up over a mining tunnel. The main purpose of the investigation was to evaluate the safety analysis of the building due to old mining activities. Strong electrical anisotropy has been observed and it was proven to be caused by geological setting of the site. To handle the anisotropy problem, field data were inverted by a 3D anisotropic tomography algorithm and we could obtain 3D subsurface images, which matches well with geology mapping observations. The inversion results have been used to provide the subsurface model for the safety analysis in rock engineering and we could assure the residents that the apartment has no problem in its safety after the completion of investigation works.

We followed and extended the algorithm originally made by Das (1995) to calculate the electric potential and field induced by electric current in arbitrary anisotropic layered structure. We confirmed all the theoretical contents and coded the corresponding program to acquire the electric potential and field. Further we extended to forward estimation of apparent resistivity to be attained by electrical resistivity survey on anisotropic layered structure with differing the electrode spacing and azimuth of anisotropy. The effects of anisotropy were reviewed by considering some examples.

The MT data at the Okchon Belt show peculiar phase responses exceeding $90^{\circ}$. A reasonable explanation is that those responses are due to an electrical anisotropy structure which is composed of a narrow anisotropic block and an anisotropic layer. Considering the dominant anisotropic strikes of the block (NE-trend) and the layer (NW-trend) inferred from the MT data, if existing, the electrical anisotropy in the Okchon Belt was probably produced by the deformations in the pre-Jurassic period, since the NE-trending shearing or thrusting should create alternating bands of metamorphic rocks and fractures with NE-trending. Correlation of the structural strike of 2-D block with the latest EW-trending deformation events demonstrates that the geometrical structure of the anisotropic block was formed by the latest Daebo and Bulgugsa orogeny.

To analyze the anisotropic characteristics of fractured aquifer, variations of streaming potential were measured during and after pumping over several wells at the two test sites. Surface electrical resistivity survey, normal resistivity logging, and slug test were performed at the wells to identify the hydrogeological structure. Applying the results to the recently suggested model, the aquifer of the two test sites showed confined characteristics. Anisotropic direction appeared in using equi-potential maps from self-potential monitoring results matched well with the results of the hydrogeological test. The self-potential monitoring method adopted in this study would be useful for providing a more reliable information on the anisotropy of aquifer in the pumping test at single well.

This paper deals with a kind of the half-space interfacial problem in time domain, requiring the calculation of the horizontal electric field generated by a tiny impulsive current source located horizontally at the interface between an isotropic upper half-space and a uniaxially anisotropic lower half-space. With the Cagniard-de-Hoop method adapted for our interfacial case, we obtain the explicit-form solution for this electric field. We also investigate the impulse radiation in the radial direction. The impulse components of Dirac $\delta$-function type in transient waveforms are important for the understanding of the interfacial far-field characteristics. The uniaxial case is a generalization of the isotropic one, and the explicit solutions of the uniaxial problem in this paper reduce to the solutions of the isotropic problem if the anisotropy is removed.
