Lattice Boltzmann simulations of spontaneous flow in active liquid crystals: The role of boundary conditions
Active liquid crystals or active gels are soft materials which can be physically realised, e.g. by preparing a solution of cytoskeletal filaments interacting with molecular motors. We study the hydrodynamics of an active liquid crystal in a slab-like geometry with various boundary conditions, by sol...
