摘要
Tertiary structure formation underlies the folding mechanics of many classes of polymers. A simplified model of helical polymers is a useful system in which to begin studying the formation and properties of compact conformations known from biomolecules. Hyper-phase diagrams and structural transitions are presented for polymers of length 40 and 50 over an array of model parameters.
