Models for Polymeric and Anisotropic Liquids

Focusing on the physics of polymeric liquids, this book emphasizes the importance of selecting a minimal yet effective set of descriptors for modeling, such as architecture and hydrodynamic interaction. It explores the kinetic theory and computer simulation methods necessary for analyzing these models and interpreting their results. Additionally, the text includes sample applications and computer codes, making it a practical resource for understanding material properties under various external conditions.
