property Dipole.geometric_factor#

Calculate geometric factor for every receiver.

Consider you have current electrodes A and B, and potential electrodes M and N. Let RAM represents the scalar horizontal distance between electrodes A and M; likewise for RBM, RAN and RBN. The geometric factor is given by:

G=1C[1RAM1RBM1RAN+1RBN]

where C=2π for a halfspace and C=4π for a wholespace.

Returns:
(nD) numpy.ndarray

Geometric factor for each datum
