Abstract
This chapter describes Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations, carried out for simple models of liquid crystals. The results are compared with predictions of coarse-grained theories, based on Oseen-Frank orientational elasticity, Landaude Gennes order tensor theory, and the Onsager density functional. A variety of inhomogeneous systems have been studied, including planar interfaces with containing walls, the equilibrium nematic-isotropic interface, a disclination defect, and a colloidal suspension.
