Mathematical Modelling of Industrial Processes

The 1990 CIME course on Mathematical Modelling of Industrial
Processes set out to illustrate some advances in questions
of industrial mathematics, i.e.of the applications of
mathematics (with all its "academic" rigour) to real-life
problems.
The papers describe the genesis of the models and illustrate
their relevant mathematical characteristics. Among the
themesdealt with are: thermally controlled crystal growth,
thermal behaviour of a high-pressure gas-discharge lamp, the
sessile-drop problem, etching processes, the batch-coil-
annealing process, inverse problems in classical dynamics,
image representation and dynamical systems, scintillation in
rear projections screens, identification of semiconductor
properties,pattern recognition with neural networks.
