    I C Sinka
    Merck Sharp and Dohme Ltd, Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire EN11 9BU, UK
    Int J Pharm 271:215-24. 2004
    ..Density maps in tablets manufactured under controlled conditions are presented. The results are discussed with reference to the local properties of the material within the tablet and the tablet design features...
  2. ncbi Analysis of tablet compaction. II. Finite element analysis of density distributions in convex tablets
    I C Sinka
    Merck Sharp and Dohme Ltd, Development Laboratories, Hertford Road, Hoddesdon, EN11 9BU, United Kingdom
    J Pharm Sci 93:2040-53. 2004
    ..Also, tablet regions having lower density locally have higher propensity for damage. The applicability of finite element analysis for optimizations of formulation design, process development, tablet image, and tool design is discussed...
  3. ncbi Measurement of the flow properties of powders with special reference to die fill
    I C Sinka
    Merck Sharp and Dohme Ltd, Hertford Road, Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire EN11 9BU, UK
    Int J Pharm 280:27-38. 2004
    ..The initial conditioning of the material, the die opening and if die filling takes place in air or in vacuum, however, were found to change the flow behaviour significantly...

    S Jackson
    Department of Engineering, University of Leicester, Leicester, UK
    Eur J Pharm Biopharm 65:253-6. 2007
    ..The results demonstrate the improvement offered by suction and illustrate how a fundamental understanding of die fill phenomena could assist the selection of process parameters to maximise the operational speed of a rotary press...
