Mesoscopic lattice Boltzmann nemato-dynamics

In this thesis we have developed an anisotropic lattice Boltzmann (LB) model that recovers the incompressible isentropic Ericksen-Leslie-Parodi (ELP) equations of continuum nemato-dynamics in two dimensions with the director confined to the plane. Suitable validations of the developed model against...
