We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Process Simulation",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Seminars improve engineering efficiency from
National Metals Technology Centre (NAMTEC), which we summarised at the time by saying "Presentations will cover business process modelling, environmental management and control, product management via metallurgical control, opportunities in tool
coatings and drive systems".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Tool brings simulation to the desktop from
Invensys SimSci Esscor: "The SIM4ME Portal constructs a simple, bidirectional communication link between the SimSci-Esscor PRO/II steady-state simulator and Microsoft Excel".
In April 2007, we covered the news from ESI Group
- take a look at Casting software goes on show in Dusseldorf
which says: "Visitors to ESI Group's stand at the GIFA foundry trade show in Dusseldorf, Germany will get a comprehensive overview of the rapid developments in the area of casting process simulation".
Take a look also at the news release from TTE Technical Training Group, Training alliance sets sites on simulator,
as well as Simulator to train refinery operators from Invensys SimSci Esscor,
and Simulation software works with Visio from Adept Scientific.
