Influence of the principle of minimum potential energy on the distribution of density and gravitational energy of the Earth for the reference model PREM
Abstract:From the point of view of modeling the internal structure of the Earth, its figure and evolution play an important role, which to one degree or another are associated with gravitational energy and the principle of its minimization. The realization of the minimum principle of potential for models of the distribution of the Earth’s density is the key in studies on the detection of inhomogeneous mass distribution. Achieving the minimum gravitational energy of the Earth is equivalent to the approximation of the in… Show more
