The principle of numerically modeling the surface impedance of a homogeneous transverse magnetic (TM)-type plane wave incident upon an inhomogeneous half-space with inclined uniaxial electrical anisotropy as an equivalent half-space with fundamental electrical biaxial anisotropy is demonstrated. The self-consistent impedance method is introduced and shown to accurately model the surface impedance response of these two-dimensional (2-D) induction problems at low frequencies relevant to surface impedance geophysics, though there is inaccuracy in the surface impedance phase as the frequency is increased. While the impedance ...
