Mathematical Analysis of Some Typical Problems in Geodesy by Means of Computer Algebra

Abstract

There are many complicated and fussy mathematical analysis processes in geodesy, such as the power series expansions of the ellipsoid ’ s eccentricity, high order derivation of complex and implicit functions, operation of trigonometric function, expansions of special functions and integral transformation. Taking some typical mathematical analysis processes in geodesy as research objects, the computer algebra analysis are systematically carried out to bread, deep and detailed extent with the help of computer algebra analysis method and the powerful ability of mathematical analysis of computer algebra system. The forward and inverse expansions of the meridian arc in geometric geodesy, the nonsingular expressions of singular integration in physical geodesy and the series expan- sions of direct transformations between three anomalies in satellite geodesy are established, which have more concise form, stricter theory basis and higher accuracy compared to traditional ones. The breakthrough and innovation of some mathematical analysis problems in the special field of geodesy are realized, which will further enrich and perfect the theoretical system of geodesy.
