In this review, we provide an organized summary of the theoretical and computational
results that are available for polymers subject to spatial or topological constraints. Because …

High molecular weight polymer solutions have a powerful tendency to deposit adsorbed
layers when exposed to even mildly attractive surfaces. The equilibrium properties of these …

Critical phenomena arise in a wide variety of physical systems. Classi cal examples are the
liquid-vapour critical point or the paramagnetic ferromagnetic transition. Further examples …

This book provides an introduction to lattice models of polymers. This is an important topic
both in the theory of critical phenomena and the modelling of polymers. The first two …

It was recently realized that the three-dimensional O (N) model possesses an extraordinary
boundary universality class for a finite range of N≥ 2. For a given N, the existence and …

This paper considers dimensional synthesis of a six-bar linkage with turning kinematic pairs,
in the literature known as Stephenson III Six-bar linkage. The synthesis procedure started …

The self-avoiding walk is a classical model in statistical mechanics, probability theory and
mathematical physics. It is also a simple model of polymer entropy which is useful in …

The interaction of a long flexible polymer chain with mesoscopic particles of spherical or
elongated cylindrical shape is investigated by field-theoretic methods using the polymer …
