The mean-square radius of gyration of polymer chains with side-groups was formulated using the method of matrix algebra with the rotational isomeric state approximation. If the effect of the side-groups is neglected, the expression reduces to that reported by Flory. The molecular weight dependence o

## Abstract The calculations of the mean‐square radius of gyration for more than thirty sorts of polymer chains are reviewed on the basis of a unified approach. A general expression of the mean‐square radius of gyration was developed for polymer chains with side groups and/or heteroatoms. It consis
A very simple derivation of a Fokker-I'lanck equation for the distribution function oP the cod-to-end distance of polymer chain is proposed. In contrast to well known methods of obtaining this equation the derivation also makes it possible to obtain the correct expression for the self-consistent fi
## Abstract **Summary:** Polymer orientation in dilute solutions undergoing shear flow is investigated computationally by means of the Brownian dynamics simulation technique applied to the bead‐spring chain model. The dependence of the degree of orientation on the shear intensity is evaluated throu
