Algorithmic and statistical properties of filling elements of a free group, and quantitative residual properties of gamma-limit groups
… Sela are exactly the finitely generated, fully residually Γ groups. We give a new invariant of Γ-limit groups called Γ-discriminating complexity and show that the Γ-discriminating complexity of any Γ-limit group is asymptotically dominated by a polynomial. Our proof relies on an embedding …

Separability within alternating groups and randomness
This thesis promotes known residual properties of free groups, surface groups, right angled Coxeter groups and right angled Artin groups to the situation where the quotient is only allowed to be an alternating group. The proofs follow two related threads of ideas. The first thread leads to …

Graph products of groups
… products. In this thesis we seek to explore the properties of graph products of groups. After some preliminaries in chapter 1, chapter 2 quotes the main results from the work of Baudisch, Droms and Servatius on graph groups, and includes a few elementary results. In chapter 3 we show that many of …

Damage characterization and modeling of notched graphite/epoxy sandwich panels in compression
… to better understand the damage propagation and residual properties of notched composite panels subjected to compressive loads, edge-wise uniaxial quasi-static tests were performed in displacement control. Coupons consisted of various sized notched sandwich panels with woven Graphite-reinforced …

High temperature degradation of graphite/epoxy composites
… chemistry, and changes in mechanical material properties. The thermal response of an orthotropic plate exposed to convective heating is modeled using generalized heat transfer theory. The key parameters identified as controlling the thermal response include well-known parameters from heat …

Characterization of Crazing Properties of Polycarbonate
… (PC) as a function of stress level, model the residual mechanical properties of PC at various craze levels and strain rates, and determine if the total surface area of crazing is the sole factor in residual properties or if the crazing stress plays a role. To obtain these goals, a new in-situ …

Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Damage in Notched Composites
… the effect of fatigue damage development on the residual properties. Quasi-static tests were initially performed on notched composites using digital image correlation (DIC) to determine the strain profiles at selected transverse sections of the outer ply of the laminates and the static strength …
