Dynamics of Liquid Crystalline Elastomers
We developed a full non-local model to nematic elastomers in terms of the displacement and the tensor order parameter. We consider both elastic and nematic contributions. This model allows spatial variation of the order parameter field. We also get the dynamics equation using variation principle applied the Lagrangian and the Rayleigh dissipation function. By using small approximation, we get s...
متن کاملApplications of Liquid Crystalline Elastomers
This chapter focuses on recent developments in the field of liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) that bring these materials closer to the world of real applications, concentrating on their actuation properties. First, we briefly introduce different LCE materials that show actuation behavior and explain how they can be synthesized. In the second part, we focus on materials in which a shape chang...

متن کاملcontribution of setting to the study of characters and the main idea in e. brontes: wuthering heights and t. hardys: return of the native.
this thesis aims to adduce an unmitigated and comprehensive explication concerning the relationship of three significant elements of fiction: setting, chracter and theme. my research is basically placed on two outstanding novels of the 19th century: emily brontes wuthering heights and thomas hardys return of the native. my endeavour lies in studying the correlation among the three above-mention...
15 صفحه اولEffect of intermolecular forces in mechanical behavior of elastomers
Importance of intermolecular forces (interactions of molecular chains) in the characteristic mechanical behavior of elastomers is studied. To focus on the microstructure of sulfur vulcanized rubbers, different network structures of NR/SBR elastomeric blends are investigated. The main difference of these structures comes from the ratio of sulfur to accelerator content in the curing systems. This...
