讲座主题/Title:A Nonlinear Approach to Viscoelasticity via Rational Extended Thermodynamics
讲座摘要/Abstract:
First, is presented a brief survey of the theory of Rational Extended Thermodynamics (RET), which serves as a bridge between Kinetic theory (mesoscopic scale) and non-equilibrium continuum theory (macroscopic scale). RET is closely related, from a mathematical standpoint to symmetric hyperbolic systems with a convex entropy law. Subsequently, is presented a recent work concerning a hyperbolic model of nonlinear viscoelasticity. The differential system is entirely determined by the universal principles of RET, exhibiting a symmetric hyperbolic form, and ensuring the existence of global smooth solutions for appropriately small initial data. In the linear case, the equation for viscous stress reduces to the well-known Maxwell model, representing a plausible nonlinear extension of the Maxwell-type model. The total stress, however, adheres to a nonlinear Zener model.
