Filling a gap in the literature and all set to become the standard in this field, this monograph begins with a look at computational viscoelastic fluid mechanics and studies of turbulent flows of dilute polymer solutions. It then goes on discuss simulations of nanocomposites, polymerization kinetics, computational approaches for polymers and modeling polyelectrolytes. Further sections deal with tire optimization, irreversible phenomena in polymers, the hydrodynamics of artificial and bacterial flagella as well as modeling and simulation in liquid crystals.
The result is invaluable reading for polymer and theoretical chemists, chemists in industry, materials scientists and plastics technologists.

Arkady I. Leonov obtained his two PhD degrees in fluid mechanics and mathematical physics from two research institutes at the Soviet Academy of Sciences in Moscow. Upon arrival in the USA in 1987, he worked in California as a visiting scientist at Stanford University and at the IBM Almaden Research Center, San Jose, CA, before joining the University of Akron in 1988. Dr. Leonov has about 200 scientific papers, three book chapters and four books to his name, and is an honorary member of the British Society of Rheology.
