چکیده

We develop the hybrid Monte Carlo method for simulations of single off-lattice polymer chains. We discuss implementation and choice of simulation parameters in some detail. The performance of the algorithm is tested on models for homopolymers with shortor long-range self-repulsion, using chains with 16 ≤ N ≤ 512 monomers. Without excessive fine tuning, we find that the computational cost grows as N2+z ′ with 0.64 < z′ < 0.84. In addition, we report results for the scaling of the end-to-end distance, r1N ∼ Nν(lnN)−α.

The Hybrid Monte Carlo Method for Polymer Chains

The use of the Hybrid Monte Carlo method in simulating off-lattice polymer chains is discussed. I focus on the problem of finding efficient algorithms for long flexible chains. To speed up the simulation of such chains the Fourier acceleration technique is used. Numerical results are presented for four models with different repulsive interactions between the monomers.

A New Approach for Monte Carlo Simulation of RAFT Polymerization

In this work, based on experimental observations and exact theoretical predictions, the kinetic scheme of RAFT polymerization is extended to a wider range of reactions such as irreversible intermediate radical terminations and reversible transfer reactions. The reactions which have been labeled as kinetic scheme are the more probable existing reactions as the theoretical point of view. The ...

Optimal Scheduling of Battery Energy Storage System in Distribution Network Considering Uncertainties using hybrid Monte Carlo- Genetic Approach

This paper proposes a novel hybrid Monte Carlo simulation-genetic approach (MCS-GA) for optimal operation of a distribution network considering renewable energy generation systems (REGSs) and battery energy storage systems (BESSs). The aim of this paper is to design an optimal charging /discharging scheduling of BESSs so that the total daily profit of distribution company (Disco) can be maximiz...

Monte Carlo simulation of dense polymer melts using event chain algorithms.

We propose an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm for the off-lattice simulation of dense hard sphere polymer melts using cluster moves, called event chains, which allow for a rejection-free treatment of the excluded volume. Event chains also allow for an efficient preparation of initial configurations in polymer melts. We parallelize the event chain Monte Carlo algorithm to further increase simula...
