Abstract
In most application fields one frequently finds models that are applied with a different goal than described in the previous chapters. The purpose of modeling was defined as prediction in a general sense. Models show how an environmental system develops, starting from an initial state, restricted by some boundary conditions under the assumption that some parameters are well defined and well known. That usual procedure of simulation was demonstrated above.
