Opis

A selection of 25 theoretical and experimental papers from an April 1992 symposium in San Francisco, discuss the fractal aspects of polymer networks and gels; rigid, semiflexible, and flexible species; and their behavior in force fields. Among the specific topics are the suppression of fluctuation-d
