simpeg.regularization.VectorAmplitude.length_scale_y#

property VectorAmplitude.length_scale_y#

Multiplier constant for smoothness along z relative to base scale length.

Where the $\mathrm{\Delta }h$ defines the base length scale (i.e. minimum cell dimension), and ${\alpha }_y$ defines the multiplier constant for first-order smoothness along y, the length-scale is given by:

$$L_y=(\frac{{\alpha }_y}{\mathrm{\Delta }h}{)}^{1/2}$$

Returns:

float
