Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The worm-like chain (WLC) model in polymer physics is used to describe the behavior of semi-flexible polymers; it is sometimes referred to as the Kratky-Porod worm-like chain model. The WLC model envisions an isotropic rod that is continuously flexible; this is in contrast to the freely-jointed chain model that is flexible only between discrete segments. The worm-like chain model is particularly suited for describing stiffer polymers, with successive segments…mehr

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The worm-like chain (WLC) model in polymer physics is used to describe the behavior of semi-flexible polymers; it is sometimes referred to as the Kratky-Porod worm-like chain model. The WLC model envisions an isotropic rod that is continuously flexible; this is in contrast to the freely-jointed chain model that is flexible only between discrete segments. The worm-like chain model is particularly suited for describing stiffer polymers, with successive segments displaying a sort of cooperativity: all pointing in roughly the same direction. At room temperature, the polymer adopts a conformational ensemble that is smoothly curved; at T = 0 K, the polymer adopts a rigid rod conformation.
