Controlling the energy flow in nonlinear lattices: a model for a thermal rectifier
M. Terraneo, M. Peyrard, G. Casati
We address the problem of heat conduction in 1-D nonlinear chains; we show that, acting on the parameter which controls the strength of the on site potential inside a segment of th…

Order of the phase transition in models of DNA thermal denaturation
Nikos Theodorakopoulos, Thierry Dauxois, Michel Peyrard
We examine the behavior of a model which describes the melting of double-stranded DNA chains. The model, with displacement-dependent stiffness constants and a Morse on-site potenti…
