Spatial modulation of the composition of a binary liquid near a repulsive wall
Shibu Saw, S. M. Kamil, Chandan Dasgupta
When a binary liquid is confined by a strongly repulsive wall, the local density is depleted near the wall and an interface similar to that between the liquid and its vapor is form…
A Coupled Map Lattice Model for Rheological Chaos in Sheared Nematic Liquid Crystals
S. M. Kamil, Gautam I. Menon, Sudeshna Sinha
A variety of complex fluids under shear exhibit complex spatio-temporal behaviour, including what is now termed rheological chaos, at moderate values of the shear rate. Such chaos…
The Isotropic-Nematic Interface with an Oblique Anchoring Condition
S. M. Kamil, A. K. Bhattacharjee, R. Adhikari +1
We present numerical and analytic results for uniaxial and biaxial order at the isotropic-nematic interface within Ginzburg-Landau-de Gennes theory. We study the case where an obli…
Biaxiality at the Isotropic-Nematic Interface with Planar Anchoring
S. M. Kamil, A. K. Bhattacharjee, R. Adhikari +1
We revisit the classic problem of the structure of the isotropic-nematic interface within Ginzburg-Landau-de Gennes theory, refining previous analytic treatments of biaxiality at t…
Regular and Chaotic States in a Local Map Description of Sheared Nematic Liquid Crystals
S. M. Kamil, Sudeshna Sinha, Gautam I. Menon
We propose and study a local map capable of describing the full variety of dynamical states, ranging from regular to chaotic, obtained when a nematic liquid crystal is subjected to…
