On the Whitehead groups of semi-direct products of free groups

Let G be a group. We denote the Whitehead group of G by Wh G and the projective class group of the integral group ring Z(G) of G by K₀Z(G). Then Wh G = 0 if G is free abelian (Bass-Heller-Swan), free (Gersten-Stailings) or a semi-direct product of a free group and an infinite cyclic group (Farrell-H...
