Abstract

Summary

The paper comprises new knowledge and at the same time improves cognition about some important issues related to modelling and interpretation of gravity anomalies in gravity exploration.

Useful algorithms for interactive modelling of varying geometric bodies with specific effective gravity attraction are developed. The analytical expressions concerning the form and the spatial relation of some geometrical models such as finite 3D horizontal circular cylinder and finite 2D horizontal elliptical cylinder are improved. This enhanced their technical qualities and flexibility through the modelling process.

In addition, all geometric models as well as the measured and the modelled gravity data are supported with original subroutines for visualization.

Moreover, the elements of the model are captured by a complex algorithm for simple real-time modelling which provides manual control of the model.

The optimization algorithms are based on Tikhonov regularization which means that additional heterogeneous information which stabilizes the solution of the inverse gravity problem could be included in the optimized models during the interpretation process.

The developed algorithms and programs are integrated into a single automated SYstem for Modelling and INterpreting of GRavity ANomalies (SYMINGRAN).
