Maximum Entropy Principle: Its Role in Kinetic Theory and Connection to Rational Extended Thermodynamics

2025/03/11 (Tue.) 10:00~13:00
  • Date : 2025/03/11 (Tue.) 10:00~13:00
  • Location : online
  • Speaker : Arima Takashi (National Institute of Technology, Tomakomai College)
  • Organizer : Tai-Ping Liu (AS)
  • Abstract : This talk discusses the historical and theoretical significance of the Maximum Entropy Principle (MEP) as a powerful closure method for moment equations in kinetic theory, linking microscopic descriptions to macroscopic Rational Extended Thermodynamics (RET). Emphasis is placed on Wolfgang Dreyer's pioneering contributions, extending MEP from classical to relativistic and degenerate gas systems, and establishing its equivalence with RET. Recent advances and challenges in nonlinear MEP closures, especially for polyatomic gases, are briefly highlighted.
