3. Mesoscopic methods

3.1 Introduction

This article, along with the one on atomistic methods [AF 6 042] , is intended to give the informed reader an overview of simulation methods applied to polymers, and to show that the techniques employed are robust and reliable for adequately representing nanoscopic or even macroscopic systems. What is applicable on a large scale is no longer necessarily so on a mesoscopic or atomistic level. More theoretical developments have not been presented, but the fundamentals that provide a better understanding of the methods used are discussed. As previously mentioned, mesoscopic simulation is positioned between molecular dynamics methods for atomistic representation, and the continuous approach...
