Prof. Dr. B. Driefien-Holscher deceased on November 16, 2004. Subsequently, the working group at the university of Paderborn was closed. Questions regarding this text can be adressed to Prof. Dr. Walter Leitner (leitner itmc.rwth-aachen.de). 

Various types of DACs have been developed within the past decades. An overview of different cells is given for example by Jayaraman (1983). As an example to demonstrate the capabilities of DACs, fig. 2 presents an cutaway view of a miniature cell used at the University of Paderborn. The cell was designed for magnetic resonance studies with maximum pressures of up to 35 GPa. To use it within magnetic fields, it is completely made of a non-magnetic Be-Co...

Commercial software to predict the performance of composite modular co-rotating twin-screw extruders in industrial processing operations has been developed. This was first achieved by researchers at the University of Akron [109,110,126,129,135] and called Akro co twin screw. Subsequent developments of similar software were given by Potente et al. [125,128] at the University of Paderborn and by Vergnes et al. [136] at the Ecole de Mines. Typical computations by these programs are developed in Fig. 9.26. Pressure, temperature, fill factor, melting, and screw torque profiles are predicted as a function of process conditions.
