Abstract
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 56, Issue 4, Page 4324-4355, August 2024. Abstract. In this paper, we study a mathematical model describing the movement of a colloidal particle in a fixed, bounded three dimensional container filled with a nematic liquid crystal fluid. The motion of the fluid is governed by the Beris–Edwards model for nematohydrodynamics equations, which couples the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with a parabolic system. The dynamics of colloidal particle within the nematic liquid crystal is described by the conservation laws of linear and angular momentum. We prove the existence of global weak solutions for the coupled system.
期刊介绍:
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis (SIMA) features research articles of the highest quality employing innovative analytical techniques to treat problems in the natural sciences. Every paper has content that is primarily analytical and that employs mathematical methods in such areas as partial differential equations, the calculus of variations, functional analysis, approximation theory, harmonic or wavelet analysis, or dynamical systems. Additionally, every paper relates to a model for natural phenomena in such areas as fluid mechanics, materials science, quantum mechanics, biology, mathematical physics, or to the computational analysis of such phenomena.
Submission of a manuscript to a SIAM journal is representation by the author that the manuscript has not been published or submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere.
Typical papers for SIMA do not exceed 35 journal pages. Substantial deviations from this page limit require that the referees, editor, and editor-in-chief be convinced that the increased length is both required by the subject matter and justified by the quality of the paper.
