摘要
We introduce a generalized freely jointed chain and calculate analytically its partitions function and force extension relation. The generalization allows for arbitrary single segment partition functions and arbitrary dimensions. New quantitative and qualitative features of the chain are obtained for segments with internal structure. As an example we analyze the Mooney-Rivlin plot for the force elongation relation of polymer networks and find excellent agreement with experimental data.
