dc.description.abstract | We analyze the force-extension curve for a general class of systems, which are described at the mesoscopic
level by a free energy depending on the extension of its components. Similarly to what is done in real experiments,
the total length of the system is the controlled parameter. This imposes a global constraint in the minimization
procedure leading to the equilibrium values of the extensions. As a consequence, the force-extension curve has
multiple branches in a certain range of forces. The stability of these branches is governed by the free energy:
there are a series of first-order phase transitions at certain values of the total length, in which the free energy
itself is continuous but its first derivative, the force, has a finite jump. This behavior is completely similar to that
observed in real experiments with biomolecules like proteins and with other complex systems | es |
