Line disclination dynamics in uniaxial nematic liquid crystals
暂无分享,去创建一个
We analyse the motion of a line disclination in a nematic liquid crystal using the methods of formal asymptotics in the limit as the thickness of its core tends to zero. The disclination appears as a singularity in the field equations for the director and the fluid velocity. Its motion is governed by a law obtained from a local analysis about its core.
