ABOUT THE PROJECT

The aim of the project is to improve the computational performance and accuracy of a numerical algorithm specifically developed for the simulation of the polymer molding injection process. The algorithm computes the drop of pressure along each path, taking into account the viscous behavior of the polymer along with the variation of the temperature.

A basic algorithm provided by the Client has been analyzed and numerically improved in both its robustness and efficiency. Then, the code has been translated from Matlab to C++, with a significant speed-up of the resolution time.
