Partial regularity of the dynamic system modeling the flow of liquid crystals

Here we established the partial regularity of suitable weak solutions to the dynamical systems modelling the flow of liquid crystals. It is a natural generalization of an earlier work of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg on the Navier-Stokes system with some simplifications due to better estimates on the pressure term.
