On the weak nematic elasticity and soft deformation modes
A. I. Leonov, V. S. Volkov
The paper investigates the general case of incompressible non-classical elasticity with small deformations and rotations. It is shown that the internal spin rotations are important…
On the weak nematic elasticity
A. I. Leonov, V. S. Volkov
The paper considers the general case of incompressible non-classical elasticity with small deformations and rotations. The thermodynamic stability is analysed for free energy densi…
A theory of necking in semi-crystalline polymers
A. I. Leonov
Necking or cold drawing is a smoothed jump in cross-sectional area of long and thin bars (filaments orfilms) propagating with a constant speed. The necks in polymers, first observe…
A theory of viscoelastic nematodynamics
A. I. Leonov, V. S. Volkov
A nonlinear viscoelastic theory of nematodynamic type is developed for nematic liquid crystalline (LC) semi-flexible polymers. A measure of transient elastic strain due to the chan…
