README (readme needs updating)

Bead class to define Brownian particles. Simulation class based on Bead class for multi-Bead simulations.

  • brownian_bead.py is the code which simulates a linear polymer chain with Brownian forces, FENE force, and optional excluded volume force; no HI force.

  • run.py executes brownian_bead simulation(s) and saves the coordinates, radius of gyration, and end-to-end radius of the polymer chain.

  • hist.py plots histogram of the angle distribution of the chain at different points in time.

TCPP

TCPP.pdf is my (unofficial) master's thesis which is based on my professor's program for a discrete worm-like chain, the rpbd repository, and largely this repository.
