The visualization of the process data is an important factor in understanding process behavior. In this paper, both static and dynamic process information is mapped in a self-organizing map. This method is experimented in the modeling of the simulated Tennessee Eastman benchmark process. Introduction When the processes to be controlled are becoming more and more complex, understanding the proce...

In order to create an evidence-based orthognathic surgery planning protocol, an investigation of two popular model surgery techniques, the Lockwood keyspacer and the Eastman anatomically-orientated system was carried. This determined (a) the accuracy of positioning of the maxillary cast according to the prescribed treatment plan and (b) the relocation of the maxilla after a simulated Le Fort I ...

From the end of the 19th century, the development of a process for manufacturing thin plastic films was tightly linked to the emerging industry for movies and photographic films. 5 mil (125 micron) film was produced using a discontinuous device with a caster moving over 200 feet long glass plates at Eastman KODAK [1]. Soon, first patents were issued to cast celluloid films on a moving surface b...
