Alexander approach to spherical geometries, while making the connection between tethered chains and branched polymers. The internal structure of tethered layers was illuminated by numerical and analytical self-consistent field calculations, and by computer simulations. 

Fu et al. [16] analyzed a set of 57 compounds previously used by Lombardo and other workers also. Their molecular geometries were optimized using the semiempirical self-consistent field molecular orbital calculation AMI method. Polar molecular surface areas and molecular volumes were calculated by the Monte Carlo method. The stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to obtain the correlation equations between the log BB values of the training set compounds and their structural parameters. The following model was generated after removing one outlier (Eq. 50) ... 

In the mid-nineties more highly correlated methods such as CCSD and QCISD became available through distribution of the ACES and Gaussian 94 programs. Geometry optimization with these more cpu intensive programs was restricted for the most part to six heavy atoms. About this time multiconfigurational self-consistent-field (MCSCF) or...
