Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics Simulations in Polymer Science cover

Edited by a world class polymer physicist, this is a book with chapters contributed by leading experts on the various computer simulation techniques used for macromolecular materials. It describes how to use simulation to explain experimental data and gain insight into structure and dynamic properties of polymeric structures. Explanations are given on how to overcome particular challenges posed by large size and slow relaxation polymer coils. Many important applications are covered including their current reviews.

"This treatise provides a valuable perspective on theory, methodology, and selected applications of computer simulation to polymer physics and contains a unique collection of articles that will be of interest to those exploring the macroscopic behavior of macromolecules with atomistic models. The reader of this book will find it filled to the brim with timely current theory and valuable methodological details."--Journal of the American Chemical Society "This text provides the reader with important and concrete computational approaches to study complex polymer systems and is an important addition to the library of researchers in polymer physics."--American Scientist "This treatise provides a valuable perspective on theory, methodology, and selected applications of computer simulation to polymer physics and contains a unique collection of articles that will be of interest to those exploring the macroscopic behavior of macromolecules with atomistic models.
