A Finite Element Approximation for Nematic Liquid Crystal Flow with Stretching Effect Based on Nonincremental Pressure-Correction Method

In this paper, a new decoupling method is proposed to solve a nematic liquid crystal flow with stretching effect. In the finite element discrete framework, the director vector is calculated by introducing a new auxiliary variable w, and the velocity vector and scalar pressure are decoupled by a noni...
