Poiseuille flow and apparent viscosity of nematic liquid-crystals
In this work, we study the stationary Poiseuille flow of nematic liquidcrystals through a tube under a constant gradient pressure. We first examine the dynamics of steady-state system of Poiseuille flow with strong anchoring boundary conditions. For zero gradient pressure (equilibrium situation), the steady-state system can be converted essentially to a Hamiltonian system but it is not structur...

متن کاملApparent viscosity during viscometric flow of nematic liquid crystals
2014 For a nematic in simple shear it has been shown that the asymptotic form of the apparent viscosity for large shearing force can be predicted. This prediction is obtained from two reasonable simplifying assumptions. It is shown here that the same form for the apparent viscosity is also valid for other viscometric flows, provided the appropriate measure of the shearing force is chosen. The r...
متن کاملElasticity, viscosity, and deformation of orbital fat.
PURPOSE For development of a finite element analysis model of orbital mechanics, it was necessary to determine the material properties of orbital fat and its degree of deformation in eye rotation. METHODS Elasticity and viscosity of orbital fat of eight orbits of four calves and two orbits of one rhesus monkey were measured with a parallel-plate rheometer. The degree of deformation of orbital...
متن کاملElasticity, viscosity, and orientational fluctuations of a lyotropic chromonic nematic liquid crystal disodium cromoglycate.
Using dynamic light scattering, we study orientational fluctuation modes in the nematic phase of a self-assembled lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal (LCLC) disodium cromoglycate and measure the Frank elastic moduli and viscosity coefficients. The elastic moduli of splay (K1) and bend (K3) are in the order of 10 pN while the twist modulus (K2) is an order of magnitude smaller. The splay constant...
