The theory of semiflexible filaments and their networks

A method devised by Edwards and Gupta for nematic polymers is implemented here for semiflexible filaments which enforces mean inextensibility. This linearises the path integral so that analytic results can be obtained. I argue that the expressions for the probability density obtained using this appr...
