Dynamics of Polymeric Liquids, Volume 1: Fluid Mechanics

Dynamics of Polymeric Liquids, Second Edition Volume 2: Kinetic Theory R. Byron Bird, Charles F. Curtiss, Robert C. Armstrong and Ole Hassager Volume Two deals with the molecular aspects of polymer rheology and fluid dynamics. It is the only book currently available dealing with kinetic theory and its relation to nonlinear rheological properties. Considerable emphasis is given to the connection between kinetic theory results and experimental data. The second edition contains new material on the basis for molecular modeling, the application of phase–space theory to dilute solutions, kinetic theory of melts and melt mixtures, and network theories. 1987 (0 471–80244–1) 450 pp.
