Langevin Analysis of Microstructured Fluids (Paperback)

This book highlights the important role of Langevin analysis in modeling complex structured fluids- mainly dilute polymer solutions and suspensions, where exact and rigorous results can be obtained, although some efforts are made in the concentrated regimes. It brings together basic but essential tools needed to understand and model complex structured fluids.
