Monte Carlo SImulation of Polymers: Coarse-Grained Models

Baschnagel, J. · Wittmer, J. P. · Meyer, H.

Original · EN

A coarse-grained simulation model eliminates microscopic degrees of freedom and represents a polymer by a simplified structure. A priori, two classes of coarse-grained models may be distinguished: those which are designed for a specific polymer and reflect the underlying atomistic details to some extent, and those which retain only the most basic features of a polymer chain (chain connectivity, short-range excluded-volume interactions, etc.). In this review we mainly focus on the second class of generic polymer models, while the first class of specific coarse-grained models is only touched upon briefly.
