  • Mechanics (55.06%)
  • Mach number (26.58%)
  • Boundary layer (30.06%)

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

Doyle Knight mainly focuses on Mechanics, Mach number, Boundary layer, Laminar flow and Shock wave. His work in Choked flow, Drag, Perfect gas, Supersonic speed and Hypersonic flow are all subfields of Mechanics research. His study in Mach number is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Freestream, Optics and Shock.

His Boundary layer research incorporates themes from Reynolds stress equation model and Condensed matter physics. The various areas that Doyle Knight examines in his Laminar flow study include Turbulence, Flow separation, Inflow and Boundary value problem. His Shock wave research includes elements of Hypersonic speed, Laminar sublayer, Fin and Classical mechanics.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Assessment of CFD capability for prediction of hypersonic shock interactions (68 citations)
  • Plasma Jet for Flight Control (58 citations)
  • Assessment of predictive capabilities for aerodynamic heating in hypersonic flow (37 citations)

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

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Fluid dynamics

Doyle Knight mainly investigates Mechanics, Mach number, Shock wave, Boundary layer and Choked flow. His study ties his expertise on Impulse together with the subject of Mechanics. As a part of the same scientific study, Doyle Knight usually deals with the Shock wave, concentrating on Classical mechanics and frequently concerns with Flow separation, Mach wave and Laminar sublayer.

His Boundary layer research includes themes of Turbulence and Laminar flow. As part of one scientific family, Doyle Knight deals mainly with the area of Laminar flow, narrowing it down to issues related to the Hypersonic speed, and often Computational fluid dynamics and Direct numerical simulation. His work carried out in the field of Choked flow brings together such families of science as Optics, Stagnation pressure and Shock.
