SimPEG.maps.MuRelative.deriv#

MuRelative.deriv(m, v=None)[source]#

Derivative of mapping with respect to the input parameters.

For a mapping that transforms a set of relative permeabilities \(\boldsymbol{\mu_r}\) to their corresponding magnetic permeabilities, i.e.:

\[\boldsymbol{\mu}(\boldsymbol{\mu_r}) = \mu_0 \boldsymbol{\mu_r},\]

the derivative of the mapping with respect to the model is the identity matrix scaled by the permeability of free-space. Thus:

\[\frac{\partial \boldsymbol{\mu}}{\partial \boldsymbol{\mu_r}} = \mu_0 \mathbf{I}\]
Parameters:
m(nP) numpy.ndarray

A vector representing a set of model parameters

v(nP) numpy.ndarray

If not None, the method returns the derivative times the vector v

Returns:
scipy.sparse.csr_matrix

Derivative of the mapping with respect to the model parameters. If the input argument v is not None, the method returns the derivative times the vector v.
