The following sections are included: Advances in Mathematical Modelling Dynamics of
Dilute Polymer Solutions The Rouse model Dumbbell models Closure Approximations …

First measurements of the mass and width of the Z0 performed at the newly commissioned
LEP Collider by the DELPHI Collaboration are presented. The measuements are derived …

We study the existence of global-in-time weak solutions to a coupled microscopic-
macroscopic bead-spring model which arises from the kinetic theory of dilute solutions of …

We use bead-spring models for a polymer coupled to a solvent described by multiparticle
collision dynamics to investigate shear thinning effects in dilute polymer solutions. First, we …

A summary is given of the kinetic theory of flexible macromolecules, represented by bead-
spring models of arbitrary connectivity. The formal theory is applicable to polydisperse …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the applications of Langevin and Fokker–Planck
equations in polymer rheology. It presents the stochastic simulation techniques for solving …

Novel kinetic models for both Dumbbell-like and rigid-rod like polymers are derived, based
on the probability distribution function $ f (t, x, n,\dot n) $ for a polymer molecule positioned …

As an essential component of the cytoskeleton, actin filaments play a key role in a variety of
cellular physiological activities. To better understand the function of actin filaments, which …

The dynamics of polymers in a random smooth flow is investigated in the framework of the
Hookean dumbbell model. The analytical expression of the time-dependent probability …

Three kinetic theory models are used to predict the spatiotemporal stress and velocity fields
that arise in the startup of Couette flow. The models considered do not have analytic closed …
