The objective in electrical resistance tomography (ERT) is to reconstruct the cross-sectional resistivity distribution inside the object using current and voltage measurements made from the boundary. Although ERT has inherent advantages of high-speed data acquisition (good temporal resolution) and low-cost requirements, the spatial resolution is not comparable to other imaging techniques and remains as challenging problem. In this paper, a novel method is presented to enhance the spatial resolution in static electrical resistance tomography for the visualization of two-phase fields. This method is based on the adaptive mesh-grouping scheme in the Gauss-Newton algorithm. Extensive computer simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
