WANG-LANDAU SIMULATIONS OF COLLAPSE TRANSITION IN SINGLE MULTIBLOCK COPOLYMER CHAIN

摘要：

For many decades, coil-globule transition of polymer single chain in poor solvent has been extensively studied in order to acquire understanding of protein folding2. It has been suggested that to achieve better imitation of protein folding, a simplified copolymer model that consists of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers should be investigated, including a so-called multiblock copolymer which has well-defined alternating hydrophilic and hydrophobic block sequences along the chain3. Here, we presented our simulation results about collapse transition of such a multiblock copolymer chain via Wang-Landaus algorithm.
