Abstract
The variational principle proposed in another paper of ours [Internat. J. Engrg. Sci. 30 (1992), no. 12, 1715--1729; MR1185410 (93h:82078)] is here applied to derive the configuration of Weiss domains in uniaxial crystals. It is proved that the configuration which was proposed by L. Landau and E. Lifshits [Phys. J. Sowjet. 8 (1935), no. 2, 153--169] is not possible even in the presence of an electric field. Moreover, another possible configuration is proposed in the absence of an electric field.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
