The '''bond fluctuation model''' has been used in the recent past to simulate a great variety of [[Polymers |polymer]] systems (see Ref.s 1 and 2). It represents 8-site non-overlapping beads placed in a [[Building up a simple cubic lattice | simple cubic lattice]]. Bonds linking the beads may have lengths ranging between 2 and <math>\sqrt 10</math> lattice length units but bonds vectors of the type (2,2,0) are excluded to avoid bond crossing during the simulation. | The '''bond fluctuation model''' has been used in the recent past to simulate a great variety of [[Polymers |polymer]] systems (see Ref.s 1 and 2).

This model exhibits some advantages with respect to more conventional representations of the polymer in a lattice, such as fixed-bond [[Self-avoiding walk model |self-avoiding walk]] chains on a simple cubic or [[tetrahedral lattice]]: | This model exhibits some advantages with respect to more conventional representations of the polymer in a lattice, such as fixed-bond [[Self-avoiding walk model |self-avoiding walk]] chains on a simple cubic or [[tetrahedral lattice]]: | ||
