Abstract
We study a totally asymmetric simple exclusion model with open boundary conditions and a local inhomogeneity in the bulk. It consists of a one-dimensional lattice with particles hopping stochastically with equal rates to the right at all lattice sites except one where the jump rate is different. Approximate stationary-state solutions and phase diagrams are obtained and compared with Monte Carlo simulation results.Keywords
