Abstract

In this paper, we establish the global existence of a suitable weak solution to the co-rotational Beris-Edwards QQ-tensor system modeling the hydrodynamic motion of nematic liquid crystals with either Landau-De Gennes bulk potential in R3\mathbb R^3 or Ball-Majumdar bulk potential in T3\mathbb{T}^3, a system coupling the forced incompressible Navier-Stokes equation with a dissipative, parabolic system of Q-tensor QQ in R3\mathbb R^3, which is shown to be smooth away from a closed set Σ\Sigma whose 11-dimensional parabolic Hausdorff measure is zero.
