Statistical Mechanical Theory of the Facet Edge of a Crystal

Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 1987
The facet edge of the crystal is investigated theoretically on the basis of the Terrace-Step-Kink (TSK) model. The statistical mechanics of this model is formulated in terms of the lattice Fermion approach. The analysis leads always to the Pokrovsky-Talapov-Gruber-Mullins transition.

Statistical-mechanical calculations for nematic liquid crystals

Physical Review A, 1977
A molecular theory of liquid crystals is developed within the framework of statistical mechanics for classical liquids. Coupled Bogoliubov-Born-Green-Kirkwood-Yvon (BBGKY) equations are derived and solved for anisotropic systems of molecules interacting via a pairwise, orientation-dependent potential. Solutions representing isotropic and nematic phases

Statistical-Mechanical Study of Ultrasonic Waves in a Crystal Lattice

Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 1993
Elastic waves with audio or ultrasonic frequencies propagating in a crystal lattice at a finite temperature are studied from the viewpoint of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. In order to demonstrate the essential principle of the present approach, a simple system, that is, a one-dimensional anharmonic lattice is studied in detail.

Statistical-Mechanical Study of the Collision between a Crystal Lattice and a Rigid Wall

Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 1999
Summary: The coefficient of restitution and the collision contact period are analyzed from a statistical-mechanical point of view through studying the collision between a one-dimensional anharmonic lattice and a rigid wall as a typical example. The contact period is defined as the time span between the first time and the last time when the atom at the ...

A statistical-mechanical model of polymer liquid crystals subjected to external deformations

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2004
We consider the nematiclike system of polymer liquid crystal (PLC) macromolecules represented by the Flory semiflexible chain model. Segments of the flexible (F) spacers are shorter than the LC hard-rod sequences. We investigate effects of imposition of external deformations.

Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics of Liquid Crystals and Their Solutions.

1977
Abstract : This is a brief summary of the liquid crystal research supported by ARO at Georgetown University during the past ten years. Research has been directed toward a more detailed understanding, on a molecular level, of the thermodynamic properties of (a) phase transitions in liquid crystals and (b) binary mixtures of nonmesomorphic solutes and ...
