On a 3D isothermal model for nematic liquid crystals accounting for stretching terms

Abstract: In the present contribution we study a PDE system describing the evolution of a nematic liquid crystals flow under kinematic transports for molecules of different shapes. More in particular, the evolution of the velocity field u is ruled by the Navier-Stokes incompressible system with a stress tensor exhibiting a special coupling between the transport and the induced terms. The dynamics of the director field d is described by a variation of a parabolic Ginzburg-Landau equation with a suitable penalization of t… Show more

“…In order to prevent this failure, Sun and Liu [24] introduced a variant of the model proposed by Lin and Liu, where the stretching term is included in the system and a new component is added to the stress tensor in order to save the total energy balance. A related isothermal model accounting for the stretching contribution has been recently analyzed in [3] and in [20]. In [3], the existence of a global solution is proved in the case of homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions for u and Neumann or non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions for d, while in [20] the long time behaviour of solutions is investigated in the three dimensional case without assuming any restriction on the size of the viscosity coefficient μ and possibly considering a non-analytic nonlinearity f .…”

A result similar to the one obtained in [3] is also proved in [4], where, however, only formal estimates are proved and no rigorous existence statement is provided.…”
