Large, fast, digital computers have been widely used in engineering
practice and their use has had a large impact in many fields.
Polymer processing is no exception, and there is already a
substantial amount of literature describing ways in which processes
can be analysed, designed or controlled using the potentialities of
modern computers. The emphasis given varies with the application,
and most authors tend to quote the results of their calculations
rather than describing in any detail the way the calculations were
undertaken or the difficulties experienced in carrying them out. We
aim to give here as useful and connected an account as we can of a
wide class of applications, for the benefit of scientists and
engineers who find themselves working on polymer processing
problems and feel the need to undertake such calculations. The
major application we have in mind is the simulation of the dynamics
ofthe various physical phenomena which arise in a polymer process
treated as a complex engineering system. This requires that the
system be reasonably well represented by a limited number of
relatively simple subprocesses whose connections can be clearly
identified, that the domi nant physical effects relevant to each
subprocess can be well defined in a suitable mathematical form and
that the sets of equations and boundary conditions developed to
describe the whole system can be successfully discretised and
solved numerically."
