A rigid linear array of beads in a Newtonian fluid is used to model a rod-like macromolecule in a dilute solution. Following the work of Kotaka, an expression is obtained relating the intrinsic viscosity to the velocity gradient. Computed results are compared with the experimental results of Str6mbe
## Abstract A method for estimating the zero shear rate viscosity for dilute solutions of rigid macromolecules with complex configurations is proposed; this method is based on the macromolecular kinetic theory of Curtiss, Bird, and Hassager. Macromolecular models constructed from a collection of sp
## 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
