Micellar shape anisotropy and elastic constants in discotic lyotropic liquid crystals

The elastic constants of a discotic lyotropic nematic liquid crystal are calculated by means of a pseudomolecular approach as functions of the micellar shape anisotropy. By assuming that the temperature dependence of the ratio of the elastic constants comes from the temperature dependence of the mic...
