Abstract

Coimbatore Institute of Technology, India, organized an International Conference on Modeling and Simulation (CITICOMS 2007) during August 27–29, 2007. The conference covered research works on modeling & simulation in a large number of diverse disciplines viz., biotechnology, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, mathematics and nanotechnology, electrical engineering, electronic engineering and computer engineering.

This special issue presents a set of nine selected research papers, which have undergone the peer-review process of the journal of Chemical Product and Process Modeling. Although these papers do not cover the entire gamut of modeling and simulation activities, they certainly present interesting and useful topics. In particular these topics include the black box modeling approach for identification of nonlinear systems, kinetic modeling of the adsorptive removal of toxic and hazardous pollutants from wastewaters, analysis and modeling of homogeneous tubular reactors, monolithic catalytic converters, and a constitutive model equation for the rheological behaviour of three phase polymer blends or so called double emulsions.
