Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering

His primary areas of investigation include Bubble, Mechanics, Turbulence, Flow and Computational fluid dynamics. His Bubble research integrates issues from Mechanical engineering, Porosity, Pipe flow and Breakup. Dirk Lucas performs multidisciplinary study in Mechanics and Materials science in his work.

Dirk Lucas has included themes like Wake, Statistical physics, Classical mechanics and Shear stress in his Turbulence study. His Flow research includes themes of Slurry, Tomography, X-ray and Bubble column. His Computational fluid dynamics study combines topics in areas such as Volume fraction, Drag and Current.

His most cited work include:

  • A literature review of theoretical models for drop and bubble breakup in turbulent dispersions (398 citations)
  • A literature review on mechanisms and models for the coalescence process of fluid particles (365 citations)
  • The inhomogeneous MUSIG model for the simulation of polydispersed flows (175 citations)

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

Mechanics, Bubble, Computational fluid dynamics, Materials science and Turbulence are his primary areas of study. His study ties his expertise on Thermodynamics together with the subject of Mechanics. In his study, Inlet is strongly linked to Volumetric flow rate, which falls under the umbrella field of Bubble.

His research investigates the link between Computational fluid dynamics and topics such as Free surface that cross with problems in Mass transfer. He interconnects Fluid dynamics and Classical mechanics in the investigation of issues within Turbulence. His work on Slug flow as part of general Flow research is often related to Range, thus linking different fields of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (71.84%)
  • Bubble (43.27%)
  • Computational fluid dynamics (39.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Mechanics (71.84%)
  • Bubble (43.27%)
  • Materials science (31.84%)

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

Dirk Lucas mainly investigates Mechanics, Bubble, Materials science, Computational fluid dynamics and Flow. Dirk Lucas combines topics linked to Work with his work on Mechanics. His Bubble research incorporates themes from Drag, Sign, Lift and Fluid dynamics.

The concepts of his Computational fluid dynamics study are interwoven with issues in Multiphase flow, Lift coefficient, Applied mathematics, Solver and Condenser. The various areas that Dirk Lucas examines in his Flow study include Volumetric flow rate, Transient and Buoyancy. His work on Turbulence modeling as part of general Turbulence research is frequently linked to Closure and Flashing, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Application of a novel model for bubble-induced turbulence to bubbly flows in containers and vertical pipes (21 citations)
  • Euler–Euler modeling and X-ray measurement of oscillating bubble chain in liquid metals (13 citations)
  • A systematic experimental study and dimensionless analysis of bubble plume oscillations in rectangular bubble columns (11 citations)

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

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mechanics, Flow, Bubble, Materials science and Turbulence. His Mechanics study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Evaporation. His Flow research includes elements of Plume, Volumetric flow rate, Transient and Oscillation.

Dirk Lucas combines subjects such as Lift, Heat flux, Vorticity, Forced convection and Condensation with his study of Bubble. His Turbulence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sign and Buoyancy. His research in Computational fluid dynamics intersects with topics in Containment and Boiling water reactor.
