Exploring the energy landscape of model proteins: a metric criterion for the determination of dynamical connectivity
Lorenzo Bongini, Roberto Livi, Antonio Politi +1
A method to reconstruct the energy landscape of small peptides is presented with reference to a 2d off--lattice model. The starting point is a statistical analysis of the configura…
Self-similar behavior of pre-turbulent fluctuations
R. Collina, R. Livi, A. Mazzino
The random forced Navier-Stokes equation can be obtained as a variational problem of a proper action. In virtue of incompressibility, the integration over transverse components of…
Thermally activated processes in polymer dynamics
Lorenzo Bongini, Roberto Livi, Alessandro Torcini +1
Jumps between neighboring minima in the energy landscape of both homopolymeric and heteropolymeric chains are numerically investigated by determining the average escape time from d…
Wetting under non-equilibrium conditions
H. Hinrichsen, R. Livi, D. Mukamel +1
We report a detailed account of the phase diagram of a recently introduced model for non-equilibrium wetting in 1+1 dimensions [Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 2710 (1997)]. A mean field appr…
A dynamical approach to protein folding
Alessandro Torcini, Roberto Livi, Antonio Politi
In this paper we show that a dynamical description of the protein folding process provides an effective representation of equilibrium properties and it allows for a direct investig…
Phase Disorder Effects in a Cellular Automaton Model of Epidemic Propagation
M. Bezzi, R. Livi
A deterministic cellular automaton rule defined on the Moore neighbourhood is studied as a model of epidemic propagation. The directed nature of the interaction between cells allow…
