      An anisotropic heat diffusion coefficient is introduced in order to study some interfacial growth phenomena. This anisotropy has been incorporated in a phase field model which has been studied numerically to reproduce some ...

      Remarkable differences in the shape of the nematic-smectic-B interface in a quasi-two-dimensional geometry have been experimentally observed in three liquid crystals of very similar molecular structure, i.e., neighboring ...
    • Phase field simulations and experiments of faceted growth in liquid crystals

      We present numerical simulations directed at the description of smectic-B germs growing into the supercooled nematic phase for two different liquid crystalline substances. The simulations are done by means of a phase-field ...
