Virtual Surjection and the -- Theorem for Discrete Groups
Tal Cohen, Mark Shusterman
We prove the Virtual Surjection Conjecture for discrete groups, both for property and for property : given a product of groups of type (respectively ),…
Virtual Surjection and the -- Theorem for Profinite Groups
Tal Cohen, Mark Shusterman
We prove the Virtual Surjection Conjecture for profinite groups. Namely, given a product of profinite groups, a subgroup that virtually surjects onto -tupl…
A Unified Thermo-Chemo-Mechanical Framework for Bulk and Frontal Polymerization: Coupled Kinetics and Front Stability
Xuanhe Li, Tal Cohen
Polymerization is a fundamental chemical process enabling large-scale production of material components across modern industries. By transforming a monomer mixture into a cross-lin…
Interfacial Cavitation with Surface Tension: New Insights into Failure of Particle Reinforced Polymers
Xuanhe Li, Brendan Unikewicz, S. Chockalingam +2
Understanding and mitigating the failure of reinforced elastomers has been a long-standing challenge in many industrial applications. In an early attempt to shed light on the funda…
On the Nonlinear Eshelby Inclusion Problem and its Isomorphic Growth Limit
J. E. Bonavia, S. Chockalingam, T. Cohen
In the late 1950's, Eshelby's linear solutions for the deformation field inside an ellipsoidal inclusion and, subsequently, the infinite matrix in which it is embedded were publish…
An Accessible Instrument for Measuring Soft Material Mechanical Properties
B. M. Unikewicz, A. M. Pincot, T. Cohen
Soft material research has seen significant growth in recent years, with emerging applications in robotics, electronics, and healthcare diagnostics where understanding material mec…
