Abstract

The piecewise Roche's model is considered as one of the possible solutions (exact or approximate) of Clairaut, Poisson, and Williams-Adams equations. Necessary theoretical aspects were considered before the numerical investigations, which based on the fundamental constants of geodesy and astronomy together with global data of the seismic radial tomography of the Earth 's interior.
