Abstract
The monodomain equation for rigid rodlike polymers in the nematic phase is here extended, in a simple form, to the polydomain situation. The math. problem is further simplified by considering a 2-dimensional restriction. Preliminary results are presented for simple shear flows, showing the formation of a superstructure along the sample thickness.File in questo prodotto:
