Applications of Computer Modeling of Extrusion and Other Continuous Polymer Processes
Description:... This book compiles for the first time the most recent advances in computer software for the analysis and design of continuous processing methods in polymer manufacturing technology. The use of such computer software is currently limited by the degree of skill required by the analyst or designer. This text helps to select the appropriate software for the project at hand from among the multiplicity of alternatives. Included are descriptions of software packages for the analysis and design of plasticating extrusion screws, two roll mills, coextrusion systems, extrusion dies, calanders, and coating systems. This volume will be read with interest by mechanical, chemical, and design engineers in the plastics industry, and can serve as a state-of-the-art text for courses in polymer engineering.
