摘要
An analysis of the P. E. Rouse Jr. model is used to predict the shape of flexible, free-draining polymers in homogeneous flows. The derivation is based on the A. S. Lodge-Y. Wu/H. C. Booij-P. H. Van Wiechen solution for the configurational distribution function of a Rouse chain, which consists of a free-draining string of beads connected by Hookean springs. Much of the theoretical development parallels the one used by H. H. Saab et al. to predict link orientations for the same molecular model; rather than solving for link orientation, however, we solve for bead location. The function P// nu (U, t), which describes the spatial distribution of bead nu about the chain center of the mass in the presence of hydrodynamic forces, is a key development of this contribution.
