Prediction of rheometric properties of compounds by using artificial neural networks

The ability of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to evaluate the variability of rheometric properties of rubber compounds from their formulation is presented. Because of the complexity and non-linearity of mixing processes, an exact mathematical treatment of the problem is extremely difficult, or e...
