Summary

The paper presents some mathematic patterns by using the linear programming. These patterns are making up a simple method of gravimetric data transformation, solvable with the help of digital computers. Some methods of differentiating the regional and local anomalies, of effectuating the calculus of some gravity derivatives and of establishing the shape of bidimensional bodies, are shown. This work was aimed to enlarge the field of the linear programming appliableness within geophysics. Former studies on the scope were undertaken byShalaev [7]3), [8], as well as byDougerty andSmith [3].
