Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulation of a generic polymer model is applied to study melts of polymers with different types of intrinsic stiffness. Important static observables of the single chain such as gyration radius or persistence length are determined. Additionally we investigate the overall static melt structure including pair correlation function, structure function and orientational correlation function.
