## SYNOPSIS The discontinuous transition between dense and dilute phases in polyelectrolyte gels is observed in Bond-Fluctuation Method Monte Carlo simulations of gels. The transition is driven by the competition between local attractive interactions of a poor-quality solvent and global repulsive

The lnlluence of the polygon charge densely on the osmollc behawor of hncar polyelectrolyies IS stu&ed by the Monte Carlo method and by the mticd Poisson-Boltzmann equation. The polpon IS assumed to be either a uniformly or dwxetely charged cyhnder placed along the axis of tbe cyhndncal cd conmmmg o
## Abstract We present results of offβlattice Monte Carlo simulations of weakly charged chains where the charged beads interact with a screened Coulomb potential of DebyeβHΓΌckel type. The behaviour of the mean square endβtoβend distance and meanβsquare radius of gyration versus chain length is disc
