Variational and numerical analysis of a Q-tensor model for smectic-A liquid crystals
We analyse an energy minimisation problem recently proposed for modelling smectic-A liquid crystals. The optimality conditions give a coupled nonlinear system of partial differential equations, with a second-order equation for the tensor-valued nematic order parameter $Q$ and a fourth-order equation...
