Mean-field model for a mixture of biaxial nematogens and dipolar nanoparticles
William G. C. Oropesa, Eduardo S. Nascimento, André P. Vieira
We analyze a mean-field model for mixtures involving biaxial nematogens and dipolar nanoparticles, taking into account orientational and isotropic pair interactions between nematog…
Phase behavior of a lattice-gas model for biaxial nematics
W. G. C. Oropesa, E. S. Nascimento, A. P. Vieira
We employ a lattice-gas extension of the Maier--Saupe model with discrete orientation states to study the phase behavior of a statistical model for biaxial nematogenic units in mea…
Modulated structures in a Lebwohl-Lasher model with chiral interactions
E. S. Nascimento, A. Petri, S. R. Salinas
We consider a Lebwohl-Lasher lattice model with nematic directors restricted to point along planar directions. This Lebwohl-Lasher system is the nematic analogue of the st…
Non-Markovian Effects on Overdamped Systems
Eduardo dos S. Nascimento, Welles A. M. Morgado
We study the consequences of adopting the memory dependent, non-Markovian, physics with the memory-less over-damped approximation usually employed to investigate Brownian particles…
Nematic-isotropic transition in a density-functional theory for hard spheroidal colloids
Eduardo dos S. Nascimento
We introduce a density-functional formalism based on the Parsons-Lee and the generalized van der Waals theories in order to describe the thermodynamics of anisotropic particle syst…
Density functional theory for dense nematics with steric interactions
Eduardo S. Nascimento, Peter Palffy-Muhoray, Jamie M. Taylor +2
The celebrated work of Onsager on hard particle systems, based on the truncated second order virial expansion, is valid at relatively low volume fractions for large aspect ratio pa…
