    Bridging the gap between theory and applications, this monograph provides a framework for the solution of electromagnetic imaging problems in geophysics. It provides a simple explanation of finite volume discretization; a full description of the basic concepts for solving inverse problems through optimization; a summary of applied electromagnetics methods; and MATLAB® code for efficient computation. The book will appeal to students and practitioners interested in computational science, data fitting, and applications to electromagnetics.

    • An accessible summary of applied electromagnetics methods
    • Provides MATLAB® code
    • Gives a simple explanation of finite volume discretization
