Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Statistics

Brian Berkowitz spends much of his time researching Statistical physics, Continuous-time random walk, Porous medium, Fracture and Fick's laws of diffusion. The concepts of his Statistical physics study are interwoven with issues in Characterization, Field, Mathematical optimization and Power law. Continuous-time random walk is a subfield of Random walk that he studies.

His Porous medium study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ionic strength, Permeability, Hydraulic conductivity, Mechanics and Chemical engineering. Brian Berkowitz interconnects Geometry, Percolation, Flow pattern, Nuclear magnetic resonance and Asymmetry in the investigation of issues within Fracture. His work deals with themes such as Laplace transform and Dispersion, which intersect with Fick's laws of diffusion.

His most cited work include:

  • Characterizing flow and transport in fractured geological media: A review (885 citations)
  • Scaling of fracture systems in geological media (799 citations)
  • Modeling non‐Fickian transport in geological formations as a continuous time random walk (734 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Porous medium, Continuous-time random walk, Statistical physics, Environmental chemistry and Mechanics. His study looks at the relationship between Porous medium and fields such as Mineralogy, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Continuous-time random walk, narrowing it down to issues related to the TRACER, and often Soil science.

In his study, Fracture is inextricably linked to Power law, which falls within the broad field of Statistical physics. His Environmental chemistry course of study focuses on Groundwater and Environmental engineering. His Mechanics study typically links adjacent topics like Geotechnical engineering.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Porous medium (25.95%)
  • Continuous-time random walk (21.52%)
  • Statistical physics (18.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Porous medium (25.95%)
  • Continuous-time random walk (21.52%)
  • Environmental chemistry (13.29%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Porous medium, Continuous-time random walk, Environmental chemistry, Nanoparticle and Chemical engineering. His research integrates issues of Particle, Characterization, Nanotechnology and Péclet number, Mechanics in his study of Porous medium. The study incorporates disciplines such as TRACER, Scale, Finite element method and Nonlinear system in addition to Continuous-time random walk.

His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sorption, Soil water, Aqueous solution and Groundwater. As a member of one scientific family, Brian Berkowitz mostly works in the field of Nanoparticle, focusing on Copper and, on occasion, Degradation and Oxide. His work carried out in the field of Chemical engineering brings together such families of science as Partially saturated and Surface charge.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Measurements and models of reactive transport in geological media (30 citations)
  • Anomalous reactive transport in porous media: Experiments and modeling (25 citations)
  • Fate and transport of free and conjugated estrogens during soil passage. (23 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Statistics

His primary areas of investigation include Continuous-time random walk, Porous medium, TRACER, Chemical engineering and Particle. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stochastic process, Statistical physics, Boundary value problem and Nonlinear system. His research in Statistical physics intersects with topics in Mathematical theory, Parametric statistics, Inverse problem, Subordinator and Simulation.

His Porous medium research incorporates themes from Péclet number, Mechanics, Mathematical optimization and Polynomial chaos. In the field of Chemical engineering, his study on Silver nanoparticle and Nanoparticle overlaps with subjects such as Context. His Silver sulfide study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mineralogy and Groundwater.
