Design methodology overview

If the fume generation process cannot be eliminated, a fume control system must be designed- An overview of design methodology and design procedures for the different types of fume control systems follows. 

This chapter concentrates on one particular application and the methods needed to effectively tackle the architecture design. An historical overview of the evolution in the design methodologies and their effectiveness per-... 

The goal of the hardware synthesis work within these projects has been to contribute design methodologies and synthesis techniques which address the design trajectory from real behavior down to the RT-level structural specification of the system. In order to provide complete support for this synthesis trajectory, many design problems must be tackled. We do not claim to cover the complete path, but we do believe we have contributed to the solution of a number of the most crucial problems in the domains of specification and synthesis. We therefore expect this book to be of interest in academia not for detailed descriptions of the research results—these have been published elsewhere—but for the overview of the field and a view on the many important but less widely known issues which must be addressed to arrive at industrially relevant results. 

This chapter provides an exhaustive overview on current design methodologies with application to reactive distillation processing. By no means the presented material should be regarded as the ultimate overview, specially due to the dynamic developments lately experienced by RD research. The overview ends with a list of scientific literature... 

Blanchard, B.S. and Fabrycky, WJ. 1990. Systems Engineering and Analysis. Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ. An overview of systems engineering concepts, design methodology, and analytical tools commonly used. 

In this review I have attempted to give a comprehensive overview of the published work on nanoporous materials prepared from ordered block copolymers. Given the numerous successful demonstrations of the block copolymer strategy in the design, synthesis, and applications of nanoporous materials, this methodology holds a great deal of promise for the bottom-up en-... 

The present chapter will review instrumental aspects for successful coupling of CE with MS, regarding interfaces, ionization sources, and analyzers. Practical considerations concerning different CE modes such as CZE, NACE, MEKC, and CEC coupled with MS will also be discussed and illustrated with a focus on recent pharmaceutical applications. Additionally, quantitative CE-MS will be presented and various methodologies used to achieve sensitive and repeatable analysis will be discussed. Finally, the final section of this chapter will give an overview on new devices (i.e., microchips), hyphenated to MS, in terms of fabrication methods, microchip designs, MS interfacing, and applications. 

For readers with no prior knowledge of experimental design and RSM Reading several chapters in the text books of Box et al. [14] is a good introduction. After that, the introduction in experimental design and RSM methodology of Chapter 2 can be read and an overview is also given in Chapter 3. 

The strategy for robust design experiments that will be considered in Section 2.3 is based on the statistical techniques associated with response surface methodology. This section will give an overview of response surface methodology, presenting some of the more common experimental designs that have been developed in this area.
