Abstract
The purpose of this letter is to propose an efficient numerical scheme to o btain the equilibrium pattern in a block copolymer system. Using this schem e, one can obtain well-defined periodic patterns from numerical simulations with a small amount of computational effort. This method is extended to th e control of the fluctuations around the equilibrium pattern by keeping the kinetic energy of the system at a constant value.
