Wetting of Nematic Liquid Crystals on Crenellated Substrates: A Frank–Oseen Approach

We revisit the wetting of nematic liquid crystals in contact with crenellated substrates, studied previously using the Landau−de Gennes formalism. However, due to computational limitations, the characteristic length scales of the substrate relief considered in that study limited to less th...
