An Efficient Approach in the Frequency-Domain for Transient Analysis of Horizontal Electrodes Considering Frequency Dependence of Electrical Parameters of Lossy Soils

In this paper, multi-conductor transmission line model which is an efficient approach in the frequency domain is used for transient analysis of horizontal electrode buried in lossy soils with frequency-dependent electrical parameters. Comparing the achieved results with numerical approaches such as finite element method (FEM) shows good agreement. In addition, run-time is considerably reduced
