## Abstract In this paper, we study a simplified system for the flow of nematic liquid crystals in a bounded domain in the threeβdimensional space. We derive the basic energy law which enables us to prove the global existence of the weak solutions under the condition that the initial density belong

Abstract
We are concerned with the global solvability of the differential system introduced by Shliomis to describe the flow of a colloidal suspension of magnetized nanoparticles in a nonconducting liquid, under the action of an external magnetic field. The system is a combination of the NavierβStokes equations, the magnetization equation, and the magnetostatic equations. We prove, by using a method of regularization, the existence of globalβinβtime weak solutions with finite energy to an initial boundaryβvalue problem and establish the longβtime behaviour of such solutions. The main difficulty is due to the singularity of the gradient magnetic force and the torque. Copyright Β© 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We consider an initial boundary value problem for a non-linear differential system consisting of one equation of parabolic type coupled with a n;n semi-linear hyperbolic system of first order. This system of equations describes the compressible miscible displacement of n#1 chemical species in a poro
In this paper, we are concerned with a simplified hydrodynamic equation, proposed by Ericksen and Leslie, modeling the flow of nematic liquid crystals. For a bounded domain in R 3 , under the assumption that initial density belongs to L c (X), c > 3 2 , we show the global existence of weak solutions
