Bridging the Gap Between Atomistic and Coarse-Grained Models of Polymers: Status and Perspectives

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Viscoelasticity, Atomistic Models, Statistical Chemistry

Abstract

Recent developments that increase the time and distance scales accessible in the simulations of specific polymers are reviewed. Several different techniques are similar in that they replace a model expressed in fully atomistic detail with a coarse-grained model of the same polymer, atomistic → coarse-grained (and beyond!), thereby increasing the time and distance scales accessible within the expenditure of reasonable computational resources. The bridge represented by the right-pointing arrow can be constructed via different procedures, which are reviewed here. The review also considers the status of methods which reverse this arrow, atomistic ← coarse-grained. This “reverse-mapping” recovers a model expressed in fully atomistic detail from an arbitrarily chosen replica generated during the simulation of the coarse-grained system. Taken in conjunction with the efficiency of the simulation when the system is in its coarse-grained representation, the overall process permits a much more complete equilibration of the system (larger effective size of Δt) when that equilibration is performed with the coarse-grained replicas (II → III) than if it were attempted with the fully atomistic replicas (I → IV).
