Young and Young-Laplace equations for a static ridge of nematic liquid crystal, and transitions between equilibrium states
Motivated by the need for greater understanding of systems that involve interfaces between a nematic liquid crystal, a solid substrate and a passive gas that include nematic-substrate-gas three-phase contact lines, we analyse a two-dimensional static ridge of nematic resting on a solid substrate in...
