Studying the microstructure of complex materials is one of the most interesting problems in modern applied mathematics and statistical mechanics. A paradigmatic case is represented by nematic liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs). Nematic liquid crystal elastomers are a class of materials which associate a liquid crystalline microstructure composed of rigid rod-like molecules (nematic mesogens) with an elastic continuum matrix made of crosslinked polymeric chains...

Abstract
Studying the microstructure of complex materials is one of the most interesting problems in modern applied mathematics and statistical mechanics. A paradigmatic case is represented by nematic liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs). Nematic liquid crystal elastomers are a class of materials which associate a liquid crystalline microstructure composed of rigid rod-like molecules (nematic mesogens) with an elastic continuum matrix made of crosslinked polymeric chains...File in questo prodotto:
