Isotropic-nematic transition in hard-rod fluids: relation between continuous and restricted-orientation models
Kostya Shundyak, René van Roij
We explore models of hard-rod fluids with a finite number of allowed orientations, and construct their bulk phase diagrams within Onsager's second virial theory. For a one-componen…

Free planar isotropic-nematic interfaces in binary hard-rod fluids
Kostya Shundyak, Rene van Roij
Within the Onsager theory we study free planar isotropic-nematic interfaces in binary mixtures of hard rods. For sufficiently different particle shapes the bulk phase diagrams of t…
