Doctoral Research in Wavelet NDE and Novel Dielectrics

Abstract

The goals of this project were to perform and publish mathematical research on wavelet signal processing, periodic composite dielectrics, and complete some work on the dispersion of water from a previous AFOSR grant. The wavelet studies were directed toward nondestructive evaluation using ultrasonic waves. The novel dielectrics were mainly the PBGS, photonic band structures-periodic arrays of a dielectric with permittivity e(a) embedded in a background dielectric with permittivity e(b). Several types of disorder of these periodic objects were also studied.
