One-dimensional ferronematics in a channel: order reconstruction, bifurcations and multistability
James Dalby, Patrick E. Farrell, Apala Majumdar +1
We study a model system with nematic and magnetic orders, within a channel geometry modelled by an interval, . The system is characterised by a tensor-valued nematic order…
