CONSTRAINT-PRESERVING ENERGY-STABLE SCHEME FOR THE 2D SIMPLIFIED ERICKSEN-LESLIE SYSTEM
JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS(2021)
Abstract
Here we consider the numerical approximations of the 2D simplified Ericksen-Leslie system. We first rewrite the system and get a new system. For the new system, we propose an easy-to-implement time discretization scheme which preserves the sphere constraint at each node, enjoys a discrete energy law, and leads to linear and decoupled elliptic equations to be solved at each time step. A discrete maximum principle of the scheme in the finite element form is also proved. Some numerical simulations are performed to validate the scheme and simulate the dynamic motion of liquid crystals.
