Sculpting liquid crystal skyrmions with external flows
We investigate, using experiments and numerical simulations, the distortions and the alignment of skyrmions in liquid crystal under external flows for a range of average flow velocities. The simulations are based on the Landau-de Gennes Q tensor theory both for isolated as well as for systems with m...
