A Landau-de Gennes Type Theory for Cholesteric-Helical Smectic-Smectic C* Liquid Crystal Phase Transitions
Apala Majumdar, Baoming Shi, Dawei Wu +2
We present a rigorous mathematical analysis of a modified Landau-de Gennes (LdG) theory modeling temperature-driven phase transitions between cholesteric, helical smectic, and smec…
Solving time-fractional diffusion equations with Robin boundary conditions via fractional Hamiltonian boundary value methods
Qian Luo, Aiguo Xiao, Xiaoqiang Yan +1
In this paper, we propose a novel numerical scheme for solving time-fractional reaction-diffusion problems with Robin boundary conditions, where the time derivative is in the Caput…
Tensorial Model of Chiral Smectic C Liquid Crystals
Jingmin Xia, Jinbing Wu, Yucen Han
We propose a continuum tensorial model for chiral smectic C (SmC) liquid crystals using a tensor-valued order parameter to describe orientational order and a real-…
Leveraging Stable Diffusion for Monocular Depth Estimation via Image Semantic Encoding
Jingming Xia, Guanqun Cao, Guang Ma +3
Monocular depth estimation involves predicting depth from a single RGB image and plays a crucial role in applications such as autonomous driving, robotic navigation, 3D reconstruct…
A Simple Tensorial Theory of Smectic C Liquid Crystals
Jingmin Xia, Yucen Han
The smectic C (smC) phase represents a unique class of liquid crystal phases characterised by the layered arrangement of molecules with tilted orientations with respect to layer no…
