Hall, K.R., Iglesias-Silva, G.A. and Mansoori, G.A., 1993. Quadratic mixing rules for equations of state. Origins and relationships to the virial expansion. Fluid Phase Equilibria, 91: 67-76. Quadratic mixing rules, originally proposed by van der Waals, are used extensively in mixture calculations involving equations of state. Several ways exist to derive such mixing rules from the principles o...

This paper studies the interaction between monetary and macro-prudential policies in a simple model with both nominal and financial frictions. The nominal friction gives rise to a conventional monetary policy objective emphasized in the New Keynesian literature. The financial friction, in the form of an occasionally binding collateral constraint, gives rise to a financial stability objective. ...

in this paper, the thermodynamic properties of the aqueous mixed electrolyte system containing 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim]cl) and nacl are reported based on the potentiometric method. the potentiometric measurements were performed on the galvanic cells without liquid junction of the type:ag-agcl [bmim]cl (m1), nacl(m2), h2o│il-ise, over total ionic strengths from 0.0025 to 2.00...

We present a problem dealing with transportation of live animals to slaughterhouses. The problem is taken from the Norwegian meat industry, and may be viewed as a vehicle routing problem extended with constraints to ensure a smooth production flow at the abattoir. In addition, several constraints to ensure animal welfare have to be met. These include duration limits for how long animals may sta...

Two astrophysical puzzles, the origin of pulsar velocities and that of dark matter, may have a simultaneous explanation if there exists a sterile neutrino with a mass in the 1–20 keV range and a small mixing (sin θ ∼ 10) with the electron neutrino. Although the mixing is too small for direct detection, future observations of the X-ray telescopes, as well as the gravity waves detectors, such as ...
