homopolymer-package: Mathematical Modelling of Homo Polymerization Process
Description
The package implements the theoretical model described in the references. It deals with the polymer production in a homogeneous phase (bulk, solution)
with batch, semi batch and continuous process.

The package tends to be friendly and flexible, fully driven by graphical menus. It also has a comprehensive database of physical/chemical characteristics for
the different polymerization ingredients.
Please note : the R-package is made using published information released in the references. It does not use any code of the original authors. So, there is no guarantee the code runs as described in the papers.
However the package implements the material, energy and micro structural balances exactly as described and uses the optimal datasets highlighted.
