Abstract

An effective application of a modified Remez-algorithm to a simplified model of the uniform coverage problem in the spunbond process is demonstrated. We compute optimal solutions to different uniform coverage problems and compare them to the Abel solutions, the solutions to an asymptotic model of the uniform coverage problem. For high rotational speed and small nozzle width, Abel solutions show advantages in comparison to the solutions computed by the Remez-algorithm.
