The setting up of the Committee was preceded by an Ad Hoc Committee which was established on 31 December 1958. Although the Ad Hoc Committee succeeded in producing a report in 1959 (UN document A/4141), the progress of work of the Main Committee was in limbo for a while.

Functional Approach to Nonlinear Models of Water Flow in Soils - G. Marinoschi

This work of applied mathematics focuses on the functional study of the nonlinear boundary value problems relating to water flow in porous media, a topic which has not up to now been explored in book form. The volume deals with diffusion type models, emphasizing the mathematical treatment of their nonlinear aspects.

Electrons and Phonons in Layered Crystal Structures

An individual layer of a layered crystal may be composed of either a single sheet of atoms, as in graphite, or a set of up to five atomic sheets, as in Bi2 Te3' A layer may also have more complicated arrangements of the atoms, as we find for example in Sb S .

Tropical Circuit Complexity - Limits of Pure Dynamic Programming - Bog af Stasys Jukna - Paperback

This book presents an enticing introduction to tropical circuits and their use as a rigorous mathematical model for dynamic programming (DP), which is one of the most fundamental algorithmic paradigms for solving combinatorial, discrete optimization problems. In DP, an optimization problem is broken up into smaller subproblems that are solved recursively. Many classical DP algorithms are pure in that they only use the basic (min, +) or (max, +) operations in their recursion equations. In tropical..
