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 We present a theoretical model which describes a cooperative helix–coil liquid‐crystal phase transition. We show that this model predicts a first‐order phase transition where certain types of chainlike macromolecules in solution make a transition from a nearly coiled to a nearly rigid c

## 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
