Minimization principle for shear alignment of liquid crystals
Xingzhou Tang, Jonathan V. Selinger
If a static perturbation is applied to a liquid crystal, the director configuration changes to minimize the free energy. If a shear flow is applied to a liquid crystal, one might a…
Forces and Variational Compatibility for Equilibrium Liquid Crystal Director Models with Coupled Electric Fields
Eugene C. Gartland
Expressions are obtained for force and couple densities and stress tensors in macroscopic models for nematic liquid crystals subjected to electric fields. The coupling between the…
Surface Anchoring Energy of Cholesteric Liquid Crystals
Tianyi Guo, Xiaoyu Zheng, Peter Palffy-Muhoray
In this paper, we propose a suitable surface energy expression for cholesteric liquid crystals. We show that there exists a symmetry allowed term for chiral nematics that doesn't a…
Interpretation of saddle-splay and the Oseen-Frank free energy in liquid crystals
Jonathan V. Selinger
This article re-examines a classic question in liquid-crystal physics: What are the elastic modes of a nematic liquid crystal? The analysis uses a recent mathematical construction,…
