Download or read book Computer Simulation of Polymers written by Elizabeth A. Colbourn and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 1994 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For chemists, physicists, and students of computer simulation, provides a detailed examination of the complex problems of time and size scaling in molecular modeling and simulation. It includes not only atomistic modeling but also coarse-grained models, which allow longer time scales and therefore larger systems to be studied. Monte Carlo methods are also discussed, and have proven to be particularly powerful tools for examining a range of polymer problems. Assumes a background knowledge of synthetic polymer properties and simulation. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
