Lattice simulations of chains in good, theta and poor solvents were performed with an explicit incorporation of the excluded volume (chain thickness) into the model. The scaling power law for chain dimensions was found to apply in the theta and athermal states and to fail in the region below the the

A Monte Carlo procedure was used to determine the effect of excluded volume on the conformational dimensions of amyloaic chains. The excluded volume was introduced into the model by assuming that hard spheres, which cannot overlap each other, exist at the center of mees of each glucose unit in the c
This paper reports a calculation of the angular dependence of light scattering from wormlike chains with excluded volume effects. The Daniels distribution function, modified for excluded volume effects, is used to compute averages for scattering elements separated by contour lengths which are long w
