dd_wormgauss

Worm-like chain model near the rigid limit with Gaussian convolution

Syntax

info = dd_wormgauss()
P = dd_wormgauss(r,param)
Parameters
  • r - Distance axis (N-array)
  • param - Model parameters
Returns
  • P - Distance distribution (N-array)
  • info - Model information (struct)
Variable Symbol Default Lower Upper Description
param(1) L 3.7 1.5 10 Contour length
param(2) L_p 10 2 100 Persistence length
param(3) \sigma 0.2 0.01 2 Gaussian standard deviation

Example using default parameters:

Description

info = dd_wormgauss()

Returns an info structure containing the specifics of the model:

  • info.model - Full name of the parametric model.
  • info.nparam - Total number of adjustable parameters.
  • info.parameters - Structure array with information on individual parameters.
P = dd_wormgauss(r,param)

Computes the distance distribution model P from the axis r according to the parameters array param. The required parameters can also be found in the info structure.
