Preferred Label : bead-rod model;
IUPAC definition : A model simulating the hydrodynamic properties of a chain macromolecule consisting
of a sequence of beads, each of which offers hydrodynamic resistance to the flow of
the surrounding medium and is connected to the next bead by a rigid rod which does
not. The mutual orientation of the rods is random.;
