معرفی
Eugene Gartland is a Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Kent State University, affiliated with the Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute. His research specializes in mathematical modeling of liquid crystals, focusing on electro-optical properties, stability analysis, and computational methods.
Research integrates continuum mechanics, numerical analysis, and statistical physics to investigate phenomena like Fréedericksz transitions, director field instabilities, and phase behavior. Theoretical frameworks include Landau-de Gennes theory and variational methods, with applications to display technologies and soft matter systems.
Publications demonstrate consistent methodological innovation in liquid crystal modeling, emphasizing numerical algorithms, bifurcation analysis, and experimental validation. Recent work explores electric-field interactions, circuit-coupled systems, and ferrofluid responses.
