Dynamic Process Modeling,New

Product DescriptionInspired by the leading authority in the field, the Centre for Process Systems Engineering at Imperial College London, this book includes theoretical developments, algorithms, methodologies and tools in process systems engineering and applications from the chemical, energy, molecular, biomedical and other areas. It spans a whole range of length scales seen in manufacturing industries, from molecular and nanoscale phenomena to enterprisewide optimization and control. As such, this will appeal to a broad readership, since the topic applies not only to all technical processes but also due to the interdisciplinary expertise required to solve the challenge.The ultimate reference work for years to come.From the Inside FlapWith key contributions from leading research groups, this final volume in the series highlights the importance of fundamental research in dynamic process modeling with applications in process systems engineering and developing mechanisms for the transfer of the new technology to industry.The first comprehensive source on the topic spans a whole range of length scales seen in manufacturing industries, from molecular and nanoscale phenomena to enterprisewide optimization and control. As such, the text is aimed at a broad readership, since the topic applies not only to all technical processes, and also due to the interdisciplinary expertise required to solve the challenge.From the Back CoverWith key contributions from leading research groups, this final volume in the series highlights the importance of fundamental research in dynamic process modeling with applications in process systems engineering and developing mechanisms for the transfer of the new technology to industry.The first comprehensive source on the topic spans a whole range of length scales seen in manufacturing industries, from molecular and nanoscale phenomena to enterprisewide optimization and control.
