14. Multi-Disciplinary Analysis(Well-defined or Direct Problems) Multi-disciplinary engineering field problems are fully defined and can be solved when the following set of information is given: governing partial differential or integral equation(s), shape(s) and size(s) of the domain(s), boundary and initial conditions, material properties of the media contained in the field, and internal sources and external forces or inputs.

15. Multi-Disciplinary Inverse Problems(Ill-posed or ill-defined) If any of this information is unknown or unavailable, the field problem becomes an indirect (or inverse) problem and is generally considered to be ill posed and unsolvable. Specifically, inverse problems can be classified as: 1.      Shape determination inverse problems, 2.      Boundary/initial value determination inverse problems, 3.      Sources and forces determination inverse problems, 4.      Material properties determination inverse problems, and 5.      Governing equation(s) determination inverse problems. The inverse problems are solvable if additional information is provided and if appropriate numerical algorithms are used.
