Abstract

This paper aims to provide a forward problem solving for non-invasive electrical resistance tomography. A finite element model (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics is implemented for generating the sensitivity map for ERT system. Later, a masking data for a better sensitivity map was done to optimize the map. As a result, the sensitivity map can be used later for reconstructing the image of the medium of interest.
