Monte Carlo simulation of polymeric materials is difficult, since they exhibit nontrivial structure over many different length scales, from the bond length (∼1A) to the radius of the random coil (∼102A) and still larger collective length scales, and similarly, motions occur on very different time scales. Hence it is a nontrivial problem to devise suitable coarse-grained models which capture the essential physics and are accessible to simulation.
