Nonlinear Thermomechanics and Photomechanics of Liquid Crystal Polymers
Azobenzene liquid crystal polymers have emerged as a new type of adaptive material in recent years. The materials contain photo sensitive azobenzene mesogens that are embedded in the host polymer network which gives rise to unique field-coupled photomechanics. The complex constitutive relations of t...
