Modeling the isotropic/smectic-C tilted lamellar liquid crystalline transition
Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir, Alejandro D. Rey
Extensions of a previously presented Landau-de Gennes type liquid crystalline phase transition model for the direct isotropic/smectic-A (lamellar) a phase transition to the direct…
Theory and computation of directional nematic phase ordering
Ezequiel R. Soulé, Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir. Alejandro D. Rey
A computational study of morphological instabilities of a two-dimensional nematic front under directional growth was performed using a Landau-de Gennes type quadrupolar tensor orde…
Simulation of spherulite growth using a comprehensive approach to modeling the first-order isotropic/smectic-A mesophase transition
Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir, Alejandro D. Rey
A comprehensive modeling and simulation study of the first-order isotropic/smectic-A transition is presented and applied to phase diagram computation and two-dimensional spherulite…
Non-Isothermal Model for Nematic Spherulite Growth
Nasser Mohieddin Abukhdeir, Ezequiel R. Soule, Alejandro D. Rey
