Guru Madhavan is the Norman R. Augustine Senior Scholar and senior director of programs at the National Academy of Engineering. His new book is Wicked Problems: How to Engineer a Better World (W.W.

Process engineers develop ideal solutions to engineering problems using a logical theoretical framework combined with logical engineering steps. Unfortunately, many process engineering problems cannot ...

Process Engineering encompasses the analysis, modeling, simulation, optimization, design, control and operation of process systems, from micro-sized systems to huge industrial facilities. Many ...

Modeling how cars deform in a crash, how spacecraft respond to extreme environments, or how bridges resist stress could be made thousands of times faster thanks to new artificial intelligence that ...

Semiconductor process engineers would love to develop successful process recipes without the guesswork of repeated wafer testing. Unfortunately, developing a successful process can’t be done without ...

Modular process design represents a transformative approach in chemical engineering that utilises standardised and pre‐engineered units to assemble production facilities. This strategy facilitates ...

Growing up in Zambia, Choolwe Mandona did not always plan on becoming an engineer. “I actually was pretty afraid to do engineering,” said Choolwe, who graduated from Miami University in 2013 with a ...

Modern optimization theory, algorithms, and applications in process engineering. Topics include the fundamentals of linear programming, integer programming, nonlinear programming, mixed-integer ...
