Preface

This monograph focuses on the applications of the integral equations method (IEM), particularly with regard to the form of the boundary element method (BEM), for modeling the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) method in geophysics. This book is written by two authors with different scientific backgrounds: Igor Modin is a geophysicist, and Balgaisha Mukanova conducts research on computational mathematics and inverse problems. This monograph reflects the theoretical and practical research of the authors over the past decade and the results of their collaboration since 2013. We consider the applications of the IEM and BEM to the study of geological media using direct current (DC). Both the IEM and the BEM allow for the solution o
