The thermostats are described by a chain of variables, Nos\'e-Hoover chains, which enhance the ergodicity of the thermostats, as can be deduced both from the phase-space portrait and from the shape of the momentum distribution functions of the thermostated oscillators. The temperature profile and heat flux of both models are compared with those obtained by the standard Nos\'e-Hoover method. The thermal conductivity of the FPU model, computed with the Nos\'e-Hoover chain method, has a stronger size-dependence for small oscillator number than that computed by the standard Nose-Hoover method.}, keywords = {conduction conductivity heat models one-dimensional statphys23 thermal topic-3 } }
