The computation of chemical equilibrium and the distribution of Fe, Mn and Mg among sites and phases in olivines and garnets

A general algorithm for the computation of chemical equilibria in complex systems containing non-ideal solutions has been developed. The method is a G-minimization based on repeated linear and nonlinear programming steps. A computer program (THERIAK) based on this algorithm has been written and was...
