2020 - Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering (UK)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Composite material
  • Structural engineering

Charles Wang Wai Ng mostly deals with Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Pile, Pore water pressure and Hydrology. A large part of his Geotechnical engineering studies is devoted to Excavation. His research integrates issues of Infiltration, Slope stability, Permeability and Water content in his study of Soil water.

His work deals with themes such as Bending moment, Soft clay and Geotechnical investigation, which intersect with Pile. His study in Soft clay is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geotextile, Instrumentation, Geogrid and Levee. Charles Wang Wai Ng has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Expansive clay, Restoration ecology and Cynodon dactylon.

His most cited work include:

  • A numerical investigation of the stability of unsaturated soil slopes subjected to transient seepage (277 citations)
  • Effect of polypropylene fibre and lime admixture on engineering properties of clayey soil (265 citations)
  • Influence of Stress State on Soil-Water Characteristics and Slope Stability (191 citations)

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

Charles Wang Wai Ng focuses on Geotechnical engineering, Pile, Soil water, Structural engineering and Excavation. Charles Wang Wai Ng has included themes like Stress, Stiffness and Suction in his Geotechnical engineering study. His Suction study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Hydrology.

His studies deal with areas such as Settlement, Energy and Quantum tunnelling as well as Pile. His research combines Water content and Soil water. His studies link Permeability with Soil science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (70.96%)
  • Pile (15.86%)
  • Soil water (13.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Geotechnical engineering (70.96%)
  • Soil water (13.60%)
  • Pile (15.86%)

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

Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Pile, Suction and Soil science are his primary areas of study. His Geotechnical engineering study deals with Stiffness intersecting with Small strain. The study incorporates disciplines such as Evapotranspiration and Water content in addition to Soil water.

His Pile study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Settlement and Serviceability. His Suction research includes elements of Hydrology, Slope stability, Agronomy and Vegetation. His study in the field of Hydraulic conductivity also crosses realms of Water flow and Water uptake.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Small Strain Path-Dependent Stiffness of Toyoura Sand: Laboratory Measurement and Numerical Implementation (77 citations)
  • Cyclic lateral response and failure mechanisms of semi-rigid pile in soft clay: centrifuge tests and numerical modelling (52 citations)
  • Impact mechanisms of granular and viscous flows on rigid and flexible barriers (46 citations)

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

  • Composite material
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Thermodynamics

His primary areas of study are Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Suction, Pile and Stiffness. His Geotechnical engineering research integrates issues from Structural engineering and Debris flow. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Shear, Evapotranspiration and Water content.

His Suction study combines topics in areas such as Hydrology, Biomass, Vegetation and Sowing. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Heat exchanger, Energy, Deflection, Settlement and Quantum tunnelling. His work deals with themes such as Small strain, Soil model and Bending moment, which intersect with Stiffness.
