Shrinking technology nodes and smaller process margins require improved photolithography overlay control. Generally, overlay measurement results are modeled with Cartesian polynomial functions for ...

While black-box models such as neural networks have been powerful in many applications, direct physical modeling (white box) remains crucial in many fields where experimental data are difficult or ...

Model-predictive design is applied to solid-dosage processes. Model-predictive design—used to define, predict, and control a process—is well established in many industries and is beginning to take ...

Electromagnetic-thermal–mechanical coupling in high-speed current-carrying of armature and rail (A/R) sliding interface, which leads to armature melting and erosion, is a key challenge that restricts ...

Systems-based pharmaceutics case studies, challenges, and new uses were discussed at PSE’s Advanced Process Modeling Forum. Systems-based Pharmaceutics (SbP) uses a systems engineering approach and ...

The biopharmaceutical industry is rapidly moving from empirical, trial and error process development toward digitalized and ...

We first developed a virtual device structure to test how ALD thickness affects hole size uniformity and CD. We started our virtual experiment by using two crisscross SAQP processes and transferring a ...

While dynamic modeling is arguably one of the most important technological developments for engineers in the last 50 years, many process control engineers are unable to use it. It requires proper time ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — International process systems and operation experts have launched high-tech startup Crystallization Systems Technology Inc. (CrySyst) to streamline processes used by companies ...

Aspen Technology's Elinor Price describes how advanced process control modeling and simulation can become part of the modern control room. An upcoming feature article in January, "Changing Workforce ...
