Abstract
Constitutive relations for the stress tensor in viscoselastic fluids are derived from the kinetic theory of polymeric liquids. The Fokker-Planck equation corresponding to the so-called dumbbells theory for diluted solutions of polymers is considered. The fluid models are derived for time-dependent, nonhomogeneous, and non-potential flows, thus extending the results of [2]. A comparison with Oldroyd-B, FENE and FENE-P fluids is presented in the frame of the plane Couette flow. This paper is an abriged version of [8].
