ResumoAbstract Electrohydrodynamic instabilities in nematic liquid crystals (cellular flow in domains, turbulence) arise by the same mechanism as similar phenomena in isotropic liquids. In agreement with this view the rise time of the instability leading to turbulence in nematic liquid crystals was found to obey the same equation as was recently found for isotropic liquids.
