Mathematical models in the manufacturing of glass

Description

This series reports on new developments in mathematical research and teaching - quickly informally and at a high level. The timelines of a manuscripts is sometimes are important than its form, which may in such cases be preliminary or tentative. Details of the editorial policy and how to submit to the series can be found on the last pages of a current volume. We recommend contacting the publisher or the series editors at an early stage of your project. Manuscripts should be prepared according to Springer-Verlag's standard specifications. LaTeX style files may be found at www.springer.com>Authors> Author Guidelines. This volume presents a review of advanced technological problems in the glass industry and of the mathematics involved. It is amazing that such a seemingly small research area is extremely rich and calls for an impressively large variety of mathematical methods, including numerical simulations of considerable complexity. The problems treated here are very typical of the field of glass manufacturing and cover a large spectrum of complementary subjects: injection molding by various techniques, radiative heat transfer in glass, nonisothermal flows and fibre spinning. The book can certainly be useful not only to applied mathematicians, but also to physicists and engineers, who can find in it an overview of the most advanced models and methods. --Book Jacket.
