Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Geotechnical engineering, Hydraulic conductivity, Soil water, Water content and Compaction. His research integrates issues of Soil test and Soil mechanics in his study of Geotechnical engineering. Craig H. Benson studies Hydraulic conductivity, namely Geosynthetic clay liner.

His work focuses on many connections between Soil water and other disciplines, such as Hydrology, that overlap with his field of interest in Final cover. Craig H. Benson combines subjects such as Soil science and Fly ash with his study of Water content. His Compaction research incorporates themes from Molding and Clay soil.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluating the hydraulic conductivity of GCLs permeated with non-standard liquids (349 citations)
  • Effect of Desiccation on Compacted Natural Clays (332 citations)
  • Water Content-Density Criteria for Compacted Soil Liners (272 citations)

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

Craig H. Benson spends much of his time researching Geotechnical engineering, Hydraulic conductivity, Waste management, Soil water and Fly ash. His Geotechnical engineering research focuses on subjects like Geosynthetic clay liner, which are linked to Geomembrane. Craig H. Benson has researched Hydraulic conductivity in several fields, including Atterberg limits, Waste disposal, Flow and Aquifer.

His research in Waste management focuses on subjects like Environmental engineering, which are connected to Groundwater. The Soil water study which covers Hydrology that intersects with Arid and Lysimeter. His research investigates the connection between Fly ash and topics such as Subgrade that intersect with problems in Modulus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (59.39%)
  • Hydraulic conductivity (30.30%)
  • Waste management (17.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2018)?

  • Geotechnical engineering (59.39%)
  • Hydraulic conductivity (30.30%)
  • Bentonite (12.73%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geotechnical engineering, Hydraulic conductivity, Bentonite, Geosynthetic clay liner and Waste management. His study on Geosynthetics is often connected to Journal editor as part of broader study in Geotechnical engineering. His Hydraulic conductivity study incorporates themes from Asphalt, Composite material, Compaction and Municipal solid waste.

In Bentonite, Craig H. Benson works on issues like Polymer modified, which are connected to Viscosity. Craig H. Benson interconnects Geomembrane, Subgrade, Evapotranspiration, Surface runoff and Hydrology in the investigation of issues within Geosynthetic clay liner. His Waste management study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sodium Bentonite and Environmental engineering.

Between 2012 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of pH on the leaching mechanisms of elements from fly ash mixed soils (78 citations)
  • Laboratory evaluation of geocell-reinforced gravel subbase over poor subgrades (64 citations)
  • Leaching characteristics of toxic constituents from coal fly ash mixed soils under the influence of pH (61 citations)

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

  • Composite material
  • Ecology
  • Civil engineering

Craig H. Benson mainly focuses on Geotechnical engineering, Hydraulic conductivity, Leachate, Fly ash and Municipal solid waste. His Geotechnical engineering study frequently links to other fields, such as Dissolution. His specific area of interest is Hydraulic conductivity, where Craig H. Benson studies Geosynthetic clay liner.

His work deals with themes such as Environmental chemistry, Soil water and Shear strength, which intersect with Fly ash. The concepts of his Municipal solid waste study are interwoven with issues in Hemicellulose, Cellulose and Stress. His studies in Waste management integrate themes in fields like Creep, Sodium Bentonite, Environmental engineering and Water content.
