Abstract
In this work experimental and theoretical results will be used to show that under convenient conditions; appropriated geometry, well chosen boundary conditions, and suitable external fields, the elastic and dynamic behavior of a sample of a biaxial nematic liquid crystal can become similar to the one observed on usual uniaxial nematic liquid crystals. It is shown that this result can be used to determine the values of some combinations of the rheologic parameters of the biaxial phase.
