We propose a simple coarse-grained lattice model for liquid crystal elastomers and show, through large scale Monte Carlo simulations, that it can reproduce stress–strain, order, light transmission, and other experiments, including temperature effects. We focus both on homogeneously and inhomogeneously crosslinked materials.

Abstract
We propose a simple coarse-grained lattice model for liquid crystal elastomers and show, through large scale Monte Carlo simulations, that it can reproduce stress–strain, order, light transmission, and other experiments, including temperature effects. We focus both on homogeneously and inhomogeneously crosslinked materials.File in questo prodotto:
