We have attracted a good number of entries for this year's Model-Based
Innovation (MBI) Prize.
If you want to have a chance of winning the €3000 (EUR) prize or either of
the two runners-up prizes of €1000 (EUR), you will need to submit your
paper by 30 JUNE 2010. Late entries will not be considered.
All you need to do to be eligible for the prize is fill in the submission
form at
http://www.psenterprise.com/academic/mbi_prize/2010/form_mbi_prize.html
and send us a copy of the published paper. It is a very simple process.
BACKGROUND
PSE awards prizes totalling €5000 (EUR) for the best published papers in
which the gPROMS advanced process modelling software is used to generate
research results in a novel area of application or technology. We offer
three prizes: a winner's prize of €3000 (EUR) and two runners-up prizes of
€1000 (EUR) each.
The 2009 prize was won by a team from the Instituto Superior Técnico of
Lisbon, Portugal comprising Raquel Durana Moita, Henrique A. Matos,
Cristina Fernandes, Clemente Pedro Nunes and Mário Jorge Pinho for their
paper “Dynamic modelling and simulation of a heated brine spray system”,
published in Computers and Chemical Engineering in February 2009.
PSE & gPROMS
PSE is a pioneer in the emerging technology of Model-Based Innovation. Our
gPROMS product is widely used in academic research, particularly in areas
of novel technology, to provide quantification to support research results
through the application of first-principles modelling.
2010 MBI prize
If you used gPROMS in support of research published or to be published
between 1 July 2008 and 30 June 2010, you are encouraged to submit a paper
for the 2010 prize. The research presented in the paper should make
substantial use of gPROMS modelling in order to achieve the results
described. The judges will favour novel applications or application in
novel technology areas. The prize is open to applicants from industry as
well as academia.
Submissions will be judged by the panel of three leading academics in the
field of Process Systems Engineering: Professor Stratos Pistikopoulos
(Imperial College London), Professor Rafiqul Gani (Technical University of
Denmark) and Professor Michael Georgiadis (University of Western
Macedonia, Greece). The prize will be awarded at the 2010 AIChE Annual
Meeting in Salt Lake City.
More details on the prize, including guidelines for submission, can be
found on the PSE website at
http://www.psenterprise.com/academic/mbi_prize/2010/index.html, along with
the rules, guidelines and terms and conditions.
