DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/GSMMA/8/">La
 w of mass action and energetic variational approaches</a>\nby Chun Liu (Il
 linois Institute of Technology) as part of Global Seminar on Mathematical 
 Modeling and Applications\n\n\nAbstract\nIn this talk\, we'll present a sy
 stematic variational derivation to generalize the mass action kinetics of 
 chemical reactions with detailed balance using an energetic variational ap
 proach. Our approach starts with an energy dissipation law for a chemical 
 reaction system\,which could be argued to carry all the information of the
  dynamics. The dynamics of the system is determined by both the choice of 
 the free energy\, as well as the dissipation\, the entropy production. Thi
 s approach enables us to capture the coupling and competition of various m
 echanisms\, including mechanical effects such as diffusion\, drift in an e
 lectric field\, as well as the thermal effects. We will also discuss sever
 al practical examples under this approach\, in particular\, the modeling o
 f wormlike micellar solutions. This is a joint work with Bob Eisenberg\, P
 ei Liu\, Yiwei Wang and Tengfei Zhang.\n
