We study a simplified system of the original Ericksen-Leslie equations for the flow of nematic liquid crystals. This is a coupled non-parabolic dissipative dynamic system. We show the convergence of global classical solutions to single steady states as time goes to infinity by using the Łojasiewicz-Simon approach. Moreover, we provide an estimate on the convergence rate.
Keywords: Navier-Stokes Equations, Łojasiewicz-Simon approach., Nematic liquid crystal flow, convergence to steady state.
