在液晶器件中，理解它们在不同状态之间切换的物理原理是很重要的，这通常是通过施加或去除电场来实现的。众所周知，流量是开关动力学的时间尺度和途径的关键决定因素。因此，将流体力学效应纳入液晶器件的理论是重要的；然而，这也是非常重要的，通常需要使用精确的数值方法。在这里，我们回顾了一些最新的进展，我们的理论认识在液晶器件的开关动力学，主要是通过计算机模拟获得的。这些结果，正如我们将展示的，揭示了有趣的新物理学，并且可能对未来的应用很重要。
In liquid crystal devices it is important to understand the physics underlying their switching between different states, which is usually achieved by applying or removing an electric field. Flow is known to be a key determinant of the timescales and pathways of the switching kinetics. Incorporating hydrodynamic effects into theories for liquid crystal devices is therefore important; however this is also highly non-trivial, and typically requires the use of accurate numerical methods. Here, we review some recent advances in our theoretical understanding of the dynamics of switching in liquid crystal devices, mainly gained through computer simulations. These results, as we shall show, uncover interesting new physics, and may be important for future applications.
