Analysis of 1+1 Dimensional Stochastic Models of Liquid Crystal Polymer Flows∗

چکیده
We consider the stochastic model of concentrated Liquid Crystal Polymers(LCPs) in the plane Couette flow. The dynamic equation for the liquid crystal polymers is described by a nonlinear stochastic differential equation with Maier-Saupe interaction potential. The stress tensor is obtained from an ensemble average of microscopic polymer configurations. We present the local existence and uniqueness theorem for the solution of the coupled fluid-polymer system. We also analyze the error of a fully finite difference-Monte Carlo hybrid numerical scheme by investigating the asymptotic behavior of weakly interacting processes. It is proved that the rate of convergence of the full discretized scheme is O(h2 + δt + 1 √ M ).

متن کاملMonotonicity of a Key Function Arised in Studies of Nematic Liquid Crystal Polymers
In our previous study of steady states and dynamics of two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal polymers under an imposed weak shear [1], we carried out multiscale asymptotic expansions [2, 3] to reveal the slow time evolution of the polymer orientation distribution. In the two-dimensional case, the orientation of a polymer rod is represented by angle θ [4–6]. Let ρ(θ, t) denote the probability d...

In this paper, numerical solutions to the equations for the Ericksen-Leslie dynamic theory are obtained for two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal flows subject to a magnetic field. A numerical method for solving the governing equations for 2D flows has been formulated. The governing equations are solved by a finite difference technique based on the GENSMAC methodology introduced by Tomé and Mc...
