Thin-film models for an active gel
In this study, we present a free-boundary problem for an active liquid crystal starting with the Beris–Edwards theory that uses a tensorial order parameter and includes active contributions to the stress tensor and then derive from it the Eriksen model for an active polar gel and scalar order parame...
