Design of effective bulk potentials for nematic liquid crystals via colloidal homogenisation
(2020-02-01)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, and we work in the dilute regime — i.e. the ...
