Shear dynamics in cholesterics
We study shear dynamic in cholesteric liquid crystal using a lattice Boltzmann scheme that solves the full, three-dimensional Beris-Edwards equations of hydrodynamics. We show that the coupling between shear and the natural elastic deformation of cholesterics can induce twist in an initially isotrop...
