Introduction To Polymer Dynamics

Download or read book Introduction to Polymer Dynamics written by Pierre-Gilles de Gennes and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1990-09-20 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, based on lectures given at the Polytechnic of Milan, gives a broad overview of the field of polymer dynamics. In these lectures the aim is to stress the fundamental concepts of the behaviour of polymers without drawing on the more advanced mathematical formalism which often obscures the natural elegance of the subject matter. Professor De Gennes is one of the most distinguished workers in the field of material science. Therefore this book will be welcomed by both the experienced researcher in the area and the interested layman. It will be of particular value to graduate students.
