Fast, scalable, and interactive software for Landau-de Gennes numerical modeling of nematic topological defects
Daniel M. Sussman, Daniel A. Beller
Numerical modeling of nematic liquid crystals using the tensorial Landau-de Gennes (LdG) theory provides detailed insights into the structure and energetics of the enormous variety…
Topological structure and dynamics of three dimensional active nematics
Guillaume Duclos, Raymond Adkins, Debarghya Banerjee +13
Point-like motile topological defects control the universal dynamics of diverse two-dimensional active nematics ranging from shaken granular rods to cellular monolayers. A comparab…
Topological defects and geometric memory across the nematic-smectic A liquid crystal phase transition
Ahram Suh, Min-Jun Gim, Daniel Beller +1
We study transformations of self-organized defect arrays at the nematic-smectic A liquid crystal phase transition, and show that these defect configurations are correlated, or "rem…
