我们解析推导和数值模拟一个二维能量泛函建模的影响，一个恒定的电场上的薄样品的铁磁SmA类相的一个核液晶。我们从一个三维域，并表明，在适当的重新标度和小厚度的限制下，电自相互作用项引起边界项。我们将我们的结果与以前提出的模型进行比较。
We analytically derive and numerically simulate a two-dimensional energy functional modelling the effects of a constant electric field on a thin sample of a bent-core liquid crystal in the ferromagnetic SmA-like phase. We start from a three-dimensional domain and show that under proper rescaling and in the limit of small thickness the electric self-interactions term gives rise to boundary terms. We compare our results to previously proposed models.
