Numerical Simulation of Flow-Induced Flexoelectric Effect in Liquid Crystals
As a fundamental research for developing new liquid crystalline devices, numerical simulations on flexoelectric polarization in liquid crystals under shear flow has been performed using the Leslie-Ericksen continuum theory. We have used two types of liquid crystals for computation; one is N-(p-metho...
