Abstract: A survey is given of the three main approaches to the study of the non-linear constitutive equations for polymer solutions and polymer melts: rheometric measurements in shear and elongational flows; continuum mechanics results for special flows and useful empiricisms; and molecular theories, including single-molecule theories for dilute solutions and network and reptational theories for melts.
