McKean-Vlasov diffusion and the well-posedness of the Hookean bead-spring-chain model for dilute polymeric fluids

<p>We reformulate a general class of classical bead-spring-chain models for dilute polymeric fluids, with Hookean spring potentials, as McKean–Vlasov diffusion. This results in a coupled system of partial differential equations involving the unsteady incompressible linearized Navier–Stokes equ...
