Flow manipulation of a nematic liquid crystal in a Hele-Shaw cell with an electrically controlled viscous obstruction
Joseph R.L. Cousins, Akhshay S. Bhadwal, Nigel J. Mottram, Carl V. Brown, Stephen K. Wilson
Oct 10, 2024
The flow of a nematic liquid crystal in a Hele-Shaw cell with an electrically controlled viscous obstruction is investigated using both a theoretical model and physical experiments. The viscous obstruction is created by...
Long-term outcomes of patients with Takayasu arteritis and renal artery involvement
Corisande Baldwin, Aladdin J Mohammad, Claire Cousins, Simon Carette, Christian Pagnoux, David Jayne
Dec 11, 2019
OBJECTIVE: To describe the long-term outcomes of patients with Takayasu arteritis (TAK) and renal artery involvement (RAI). METHODS: A retrospective review of 122 patients with TAK at three tertiary centres in Canada, Sweden and...
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...
Hele-Shaw flow of a nematic liquid crystal
Motivated by the variety of applications in which nematic Hele-Shaw flow occurs, a theoretical model for Hele-Shaw flow of a nematic liquid crystal is formulated and analyzed. We derive the thin-film Ericksen-Leslie equations...
A cross-cultural exploration of children's perceptions of wellbeing
There is a growing body of literature on children's wellbeing. However, historically, focus has been on adults’ perspectives, leading to adult-centric views of wellbeing. Although recent years have witnessed an increase in...
Squeezing a drop of nematic liquid crystal with strong elasticity effects
The One Drop Filling (ODF) method is widely used for the industrial manufacture of liquid crystal devices. Motivated by the need for a better fundamental understanding of the reorientation of the molecules due to the flow of the...

Thinking allowed
This paper explores the use of thinking aloud made by young people who have sustained a severe acquired brain injury (ABI). The phenomenon is compared with the concepts of egocentric speech and inner speech before the form of...
Active control of the free surface of a rivulet of a nematic liquid crystal with an electric field
Akhshay S. Bhadwal, Joseph R. L. Cousins, Nigel J. Mottram, Stephen K. Wilson, Brian R. Duffy, Ian C. Sage, Carl V. Brown
Jun 24, 2024
Active control of a rivulet of a nematic liquid crystal is achieved by local modification of the effective viscosity with an applied electric field. Specifically, using the nematic 5CB, control of the free surface of the rivulet...
Non-Violent Resistance parent training and adolescent substance misuse
Adolescent substance misuse is increasingly being viewed as a systemic problem and several studies have shown the benefit of increased parental involvement. This article describes the evaluation of a ten-week Non-Violent...
Transient flow-driven distortion of a nematic liquid crystal in channel flow with dissipative weak planar anchoring
Motivated by the one-drop-filling (ODF) method for the industrial manufacturing of liquid crystal displays, we analyze the pressure-driven flow of a nematic in a channel with dissipative weak planar anchoring at the boundaries...
