Modeling of Nematic Electrolytes and Nonlinear Electroosmosis
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2016 We derive a mathematical model of a nematic electrolyte based on the Leslie-Ericksen theory of liquid crystal flow. Our goal is to investigate the nonlinear electrokinetic effects that occur because the nematic matrix is anisotropic, in particular, transport of ions in a direction perpendicular to the electric field as well as quadratic dependence of ...
