Excluded volume effects on the birefringence and stress of dilute polymer solutions in extensional flow
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2000-10)
An algorithm is derived for calculating flow-induced birefringence using a bead-spring model with and without excluded volume effects. The simulation results for the bead-spring model compare well with experimental results ...
