## Abstract The translational drag, rotational drag, and intrinsic viscosity of spherical multisubunit structures have been calculated analytically using the FelderhofβDeutch theory of polymer frictional properties. The structures considered were hollow shells, spheres with uniform subunit density,

The theory of Kirkwood for the translational frictional coefficients of structures composed of identical subunits has been extended in the previous paper t.o the case where nonidentical snbiinits are involved. In this paper, the t.heory is applied to particular proteins and viruses. It is found that
## Abstract Methods are described for numerical calculation of the anisotropic components of the translational and rotational friction coefficient tensors and of the intrinsic viscosity for rigid multisubunit structures in dilute solution. The methods apply to assemblies of any shape, provided that
An experimental arrangement was developed to determine the static and dynamic coefficients of friction of sunflower seed and its kernel. These friction coefficients were determined on six different surfaces at five moisture contents between 4 and 20% d.b. The nature of the surface and moisture conte
