| Abstract: |
| The objective is to show the feasibility of building statistical models of mixing processes that allow for spatial and temporal variation in the mixing process (additive and subtractive) and can handle constraints. One example of this is the formation of minerals, where there are additive and subtractive processes that vary over time, sometimes with constraints on the composition. Previously, models of this sort were purely mathematical and did not account for random variation. This has the potential to significantly improve the models used. These models are not restricted to geology, but can be applied to many physical, biological and even social scientific processes where mixing takes place. |
