نویسندگان
چکیده
2014 We report a study of the viscoelastic and elastic properties of a nematic liquid crystal as measured by static and dynamic light scattering. Experimental values are reported for the splay/twist/bend elastic and viscoelastic ratio as well as for the Mi0119sowicz viscosity ratio ~1/~3 of APAPA in the nematic region as a function of temperature.

Optical determination of viscoelastic properties of nematic OHMBBA
2014 Experimental values are reported for the splay/twist viscoelastic ratios of OHMBBA in the nematic region as a function of temperature. In the experiments the homodyne self-beat technique was used to detect noise intensity spectra of laser light scattered by the nematic liquid crystal. The measured rotational viscosity can be described as a function of the temperature, the order parameter a...
متن کاملDirector Structures in a Chiral Nematic Slab: Threshold Field and Pitch Variations
Abstract The liquid crystal director distribution is determined for a confined chiral nematic slab. The molecular director distribution of the field-controlled chiral nematic slab is directly calculated. The director profiles for the tilt and the twist angles, under different applied fields, are calculated in the slab with weak boundary conditions. Then, the dependence of the threshold field on...
متن کاملViscoelastic properties of a homologous series of nematic liquid crystalline Schiff's bases
2014 Experimental values are reported for the distortion viscoelastic and elastic ratios for a homologous series of nematic Schiff’s bases : APAPAm (m = 1-5, 9) and OHMBBA as a function of temperature. In the experiments the homodyne photoelectric self-beat technique was used to detect noise intensity spectra and to determine the angular distribution of laser light scattered by the nematic liqu...
متن کاملDynamic response determination of viscoelastic annular plates using FSDT – perturbation approach
In this paper, the transient response of a viscoelastic annular plate which has time-dependent properties is determined mathematically under dynamic transverse load. The axisymmetric conditions are considered in the problem. The viscoelastic properties obey the standard linear solid model in shear and the bulk behavior in elastic. The equations of motion are extracted using Hamilton’s principle...
