Polydispersity and surface energy strength in nematic colloids
Giacomo Canevari, Arghir Zarnescu
We consider a Landau-de Gennes model for a polydisperse, inhomogeneous suspension of colloidal inclusions in a nematic host, in the dilute regime. We study the homogenised limit an…
Lifting for manifold-valued maps of bounded variation
Giacomo Canevari, Giandomenico Orlandi
Let be a smooth, compact, connected Riemannian manifold without boundary. Let be the Riemannian universal covering of . For a…
The Well Order Reconstruction Solution for Three-Dimensional Wells, in the Landau-de Gennes theory
Giacomo Canevari, Joseph Harris, Apala Majumdar +1
We study nematic equilibria on three-dimensional square wells, with emphasis on Well Order Reconstruction Solutions (WORS) as a function of the well size, characterized by , and…
Design of effective bulk potentials for nematic liquid crystals via colloidal homogenisation
Giacomo Canevari, Arghir Zarnescu
We consider a Landau-de Gennes model for a suspension of small colloidal inclusions in a nematic host. We impose suitable anchoring conditions at the boundary of the inclusions, an…
