Thermal fluctuations and phase diagrams of the phase field crystal model with pinning
J. A. P. Ramos, E. Granato, C. V. Achim +3
We study the influence of thermal fluctuations in the phase diagram of a recently introduced two-dimensional phase field crystal model with an external pinning potential. The model…

Soft Elasticity in Nematic Liquid-Crystal Networks
Simiso K. Mkhonta, Dan Vernon, K. R. Elder +1
Liquid-crystal networks consist of weakly crosslinked polymers that are coupled to liquid-crystal molecules. The resultant hybrid system has rich elastic properties. We develop a p…
