Thermodynamic consistency test of isothermal vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data of various binary systems containing Carbon dioxide (CO2)/Room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been investigated in wide ranges of pressures in each isotherm precisely. In this paper Generic van der Waals (GvdW) equation of state (EoS) coupled with modified van der Waals Berthelot mixing rule has ...

A method based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. Upon application of the GA to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the VLE, VLLE and LLE phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the Binary Interaction Parameters (BIP) of the models were obtained. Using the method proposed in t...

We propose a new minutiae-based approach to match fingerprint images using similar structures. Distortion poses serious threats through altered geometry, increases false minutiae, and hence makes it very difficult to find a perfect match. This algorithm divides fingerprint images into two concentric circular regions – inner and outer – based on the degree of distortion. The algorithm assigns we...

real coded genetic algorithm, rcga, is the type of ga which operates on chromosomes with real valued parameters. different mutation and crossover operations are defined for rcga. one usable crossover for this kind of ga is to consider its chromosomes simply as bit strings and utilize the same operations as binary coded ga. in this paper, we attempt to show that this kind of crossover can not ha...
