Cellular Automata Simulation of the Spatial Conformations of Polyelectrolytes
We carried out a Cellular Automata simulation of a model polyelectrolyte solution at infinite dilution, in order to reproduce qualitatively its conformational properties. Our results predict the so called \emph{pearl necklace} structures, which compare favorably with the more elaborated and costly Molecular Dynamics simulations.
