Abstract

Reciprocal and related theorems are considered for uniaxial and biaxial nematic liquid crystals. In the general case, where the directors of real and reciprocal materials are assumed to coincide, integral relations between velocity and stress fields of the real and reciprocal materials are obtained. Simplified expressions are also obtained for the high viscosity and elasticity limits.
