## Abstract We present results of molecular dynamics simulations for free‐standing and supported thin films of a nonentangled polymer melt using a coarse‐grained (bead‐spring) model. Our discussion is mainly concerned with the equilibrium properties of the films above the critical temperature (__T_

## Abstract The dynamic glass transition and the dilatometric glass transition temperature are simultaneously characterized in thin films of hyperbranched aromatic polyesters by broadband dielectric spectroscopy and capacitive scanning dilatometry. A diverging thickness dependence is detected: whil
