Nuclei of ordered materials emerging from the isotropic state usually show a shape topologically equivalent to a sphere; the well-known examples are crystals and nematic liquid crystal droplets. In this work, we explore experimentally and theoretical

We present a mixed finite element method for approximating a fourth-order elliptic partial differential equation (PDE), the Kirchhoff plate equation, on a surface embedded in ${\mathbb {R}}^{3}$, with or without boundary. Error estimates are given in

We establish several useful estimates for a non-conforming 2-norm posed on piecewise linear surface triangulations with boundary, with the main result being a Poincaré inequality. We also obtain equivalence of the non-conforming 2-norm posed on the

We consider the one-constant Landau-de Gennes model for nematic liquid crystals. The order parameter is a traceless tensor field $$\mathbf{Q}$$ , which is constrained to be uniaxial: $$\mathbf{Q}= s (\mathbf{n}\otimes \mathbf{n}- d^{-1}\mathbf{I})$$

We consider the generalized Ericksen model of liquid crystals, which is an energy with 8 independent “elastic”constants that depends on two order parameters n (director) and s (variable degree of orientation). In addition, we present a new finite
We present a numerical method, based on a tensor order parameter description of a nematic phase, that allows fully anisotropic elasticity. Our method thus extends the Landau-de Gennes $\mathbf{Q}$-tensor theory to anisotropic phases. A microscopic mo

We develop a framework and numerical method for controlling the full space-time tube of a geometrically driven flow. We consider an optimal control problem for the mean curvature flow of a curve or surface with a volume constraint, where the control

This chapter is about the modeling of nematic liquid crystals (LCs) and their numerical simulation. We begin with an overview of the basic physics of LCs and discuss some of their many applications. Next, we delve into the modeling arguments needed t

Unraveling the mechanisms of packing of DNA inside viral capsids is of fundamental importance to understanding the spread of viruses. It could also help develop new applications to targeted drug delivery devices for a large range of therapies. In thi
