Abstract
Crystallization of polymers is a fascinating branch of polymer physics which has a significant relevance in industrial applications. Its importance arises from the fact that mechanical properties of any crystal polymer are determined by its morphology and internal structure, which in turn is dictated by the crystallization kinetics. That is the reason why, mathematical modeling aiming to describe and control the kinetics of polymer crystallization has achieved great interest.
