Ordering in Confined Two-Dimensional Nematic Systems: Mesoscopic Simulations Based on Different Mean-Field Potentials
Humberto Híjar, Apala Majumdar
We use nematic Multi-particle Collision Dynamics (N-MPCD) simulations to study confined nematic liquid crystals in square domains, with three distinct mean-field potentials: the cl…

Nematic equilibria in isosceles triangles: The effects of edge length and apex angle on solution landscapes in a reduced Landau-de Gennes framework
Prabakaran Rajamanickam, Yucen Han, Thuriya Alhinai +1
We study equilibrium configurations of nematic liquid crystals confined to two-dimensional isosceles triangles, subject to tangent boundary conditions. This toy problem is motivate…
