In lots of clinical or engineering functions, the place usual differen tial equation (OOE),partial differential equation (POE), or essential equation (IE) types are concerned, numerical simulation is in universal use for prediction, tracking, or keep watch over reasons. in lots of circumstances, even if, profitable simulation of a approach needs to be preceded by means of the answer of the so-called inverse challenge, that is often extra advanced: given meas ured info and an linked theoretical version, verify unknown para meters in that version (or unknown services to be parametrized) in this kind of approach that a few degree of the "discrepancy" among facts and version is minimum.
Floods represent a chronic and significant issue during the usa and lots of different components of the realm. they're respon sible for losses amounting to billions of bucks and ratings of deaths each year. almost all elements of the nation--coastal, mountainous and rural--are stricken by them.

It was the nascent socioeconomic system of capitalism t h a t threw t h e Europeans into an unprecedented e n t e r p r i s e : the conquest of the whole planet. The captured riches of conquered nations provided a good part of the primitive capital accumulation t h a t allowed the wealthy Europeans to invest in transforming inventions, considered so far as curiosities supplying the courts of kings and princes with gadgets, into techniques of production. Modern industry was born with two c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s : a voracious a p p e t i t e for energy and raw m a t e r i a l s and an endless need for ever-expanding m a r k e t s .
We fully recognize national cultures and the great area of common culture in India, the Arab World, Black Africa, Latin America, etc. Second, the colonial heritage explains another series of differences, mainly of size and population and the degree of integration with the capitalist system (often confounded with development). Artificial borders drawn by the colonial powers according to the outcome of their disputes, or in order to divide ethnic groups, or, at the limit, to satisfy the greed of a major company or the megaloma nia of a local colonial officer are at the origin of most of the ministates, the land-locked countries, and the extremely resource-deprived ones.
Needless to say, we are not denouncing access to the fruits of the formidable scientific progress achieved by Western countries. It goes without saying that the universal laws of physical and mathematical sciences should be studied and 38 DIALOGUE FOR A NEW ORDER propagated. But the ways and means of conveying scientific knowledge should be related to local conditions. On the other hand, social sciences are too much influenced by the societies in which authors carry out their research, so their findings cannot a priori be valid all over the world and at all times.
