## Abstract The continuous tower process, a popular industrial process for the manufacture of polystyrene, was simulated and optimized. A kinetic model for the thermal polymerization of styrene, which takes into account the Trommsdorff effect and the volume change accompanying the reaction, was dev

The bulk polymerization of MMA at high temperature (120 -180Β°C) in a continuous pilot-plant reactor has been studied. The polymerization is initiated by diterbutyle peroxide and the chain transfer agent is 1-butanethiol. A simulation program has been developed to predict the steady state behavior of
A numerical flow-compaction model is developed and implemented in a finite element code to simulate the multiple physical phenomena involved during the autoclave processing of fibre-reinforced composite laminates. The model is based on the effective stress formulation coupled with a Darcian flow the
