The Ericksen-Leslie model for nematic liquid crystal flows in case of an isothermal and incompressible fluid with general Leslie stress and anisotropic elasticity, i.e. with general Ericksen stress tensor, is shown for the first time to be…
We derive a model describing the evolution of a nematic liquid-crystal material under the action of thermal effects. The first and second laws of thermodynamics lead to an extension of the general Ericksen-Leslie system where the Leslie…
The Ericksen-Leslie system is a fundamental hydrodynamic model that describes the evolution of incompressible liquid crystal flows of nematic type. In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of global weak solutions to the general…
In this paper, we rigorously justify the connection between Qian-Sheng's inertial $Q$-tensor model and the full Ericksen-Leslie model for the liquid crystal flow. By using the Hilbert expansion method, we prove that, when the elastic…
The Ericksen-Leslie model for nematic liquid crystals in a bounded domain with general Leslie and isotropic Ericksen stress is studied in the case of a non-isothermal and incompressible fluid. This system is shown to be locally well-posed…
We establish the local well-posedness of the general Ericksen-Leslie system in liquid crystals with the initial velocity and director field in $H^1 \times H_b^2$. In particular, we prove that the solutions of the Ginzburg-Landau…
This article is concerned with the rigorous connections between the inertial Qian--Sheng model and the Ericksen--Leslie model for the liquid crystal flow, under a more general condition of coefficients. More specifically, in the framework…
A model of dissipative micromagnetics coupled to (visco-)elasticity is explored, following the procedures of the Ericksen-Leslie theory of nematic liquid crystals allowing for angular momentum due to magnetization. An outcome is the…
In this paper we investigate the role of Parodi's relation in the well-posedness and stability of the general Ericksen-Leslie system modeling nematic liquid crystal flows. First, we give a formal physical derivation of the Ericksen-Leslie…
Starting from Doi-Onsager equation for the liquid crystal, we first derive the Q-tensor equation by the Bingham closure. Then we derive the Ericksen-Leslie equation from the Q-tensor equation by taking the small Deborah number limit.
In this paper, we study the connection between the Ericksen-Leslie equations and the Beris-Edwards equations in dimension two. It is shown that the weak solutions to the Beris-Edwards equations converge to the one to the Ericksen-Leslie…
In this paper we investigate the three dimensional general Ericksen-Leslie (E--L) system with Ginzburg-Landau type approximation modeling nematic liquid crystal flows. First, by overcoming the difficulties from lack of maximum principle for…
This paper deals with the convergence of the Doi-Navier-Stokes model of liquid crystals to the Ericksen-Leslie model in the limit of the Deborah number tending to zero. While the literature has investigated this problem by means of the…
We consider the evolution and interaction of a 2-dimensional nematic liquid crystal of Ericksen-Leslie type within a 1-dimensional flexible viscoelastic structure. This is a fully macroscopic model in which the nematic liquid crystal is…
In this paper, we study the long-time behavior of full Ericksen-Leslie system modeling the hydrodynamics of nematic liquid crystals between two dimensional unit spheres. Under a weaker assumption for Leslie's coefficients, we give the key…
This paper concerns the uniqueness of weak solutions to the Cauchy problem to the Ericksen-Leslie system of liquid crystal models in $\mathbb R^2$, with both general Leslie stress tensors and general Oseen-Frank density. It is shown here…
We establish the subconvergence of weak solutions to the Ginzburg-Landau approximation to global-in-time weak solutions of the Ericksen-Leslie model for nematic liquid crystals on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$. The key argument is a variation of…
In the first part of this paper, we establish global existence of solutions of the liquid crystal (gradient) flow for the well-known Oseen-Frank model. The liquid crystal flow is a prototype of equations from the Ericksen-Leslie system in…
We present a continuous and a discontinuous linear Finite Element method based on a predictor-corrector scheme for the numerical approximation of the Ericksen-Leslie equations, a model for nematic liquid crystal flow including a non-convex…
We study a simplified inertial Ericksen-Leslie system for the nematic liquid crystal flow, which can be viewed as a system coupling Navier-Stokes equations and wave map equations. We prove the global existence of classical solution with…
