Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We study the dynamics of flexible polymer chains in solution by combining multiparticle-collision dynamics (MPCD), a mesoscale simulation method, and molecular-dynamics simulations. Polymers with and without excluded-volume interactions are considered. With an appropriate choice of the collision time step for the MPCD solvent, hydrodynamic interactions build up properly. For the center-of-mass diffusion coefficient, scaling with respect to polymer length is found to hold already for rather short chains. The center-of-mass velocity autocorrelation function displays a long-time tail which decays algebraically as (Dt)-32 as a function of time t, where D is the diffusion coefficient. The analysis of the intramolecular dynamics in terms of Rouse modes yields excellent agreement between simulation data and results of the Zimm model for the mode-number dependence of the mode-amplitude correlation functions. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
