Evaluación del método de Wenner y Schlumberger, mediante comparación de tiempos de ejecución y eficacia en su implementación, para determinar la metodología eficiente en el cálculo de resistividades, en la parroquia Conocoto

Abstract

In this paper we develop a comparison between Wenner’s methods and their three variants (alpha, beta, gamma). As well as Schlumberger for the measurement of apparent resistivities, which are widely used in grounding and cathodic protection studies. To do this, the implementation times are compared, in the field of each of the methods mentioned above, and the results of the processing of apparent resistivities are validated, ETAP and IPI2win are used, to calculate the models of two strata per axis and location, this includes the relative error, which is obtained for each program. Three sites were selected for the measurements, all located in the parish of Conocoto, belonging to the Metropolitan District of Quito, Ecuador. At each site, 4 orthogonal axes and 4 distances were selected. The time of each assembly, for a specific distance was recorded.
