A Convergent Finite Element Scheme for the Q-Tensor Model of Liquid Crystals Subjected to an Electric Field
Max Hirsch, Franziska Weber
We study the Landau-de Gennes Q-tensor model of liquid crystals subjected to an electric field and develop a fully discrete numerical scheme for its solution. The scheme uses a con…

The Zero Inertia Limit for the Q-Tensor Model of Liquid Crystals: Analysis and Numerics
Max Hirsch, Franziska Weber, Yukun Yue
The goal of this work is to rigorously study the zero inertia limit for the Q-tensor model of liquid crystals. Though present in the original derivation of the Ericksen-Leslie equa…
