1994 - Max Jakob Memorial Award

Overview

Geoffrey F. Hewitt was affiliated with Imperial College London in the United Kingdom. Their research primarily focused on the field of engineering, with a number of subfields including environmental engineering, ocean engineering, biomedical engineering, mechanics of materials, and computational mechanics.

The scientist's work covered several main topics:

Groundwater flow and contamination studies
CO2 sequestration and geologic interactions
Enhanced oil recovery techniques
Fluid dynamics and mixing
Flow measurement and analysis
Cyclone separators and fluid dynamics

Hewitt contributed to multiple publication venues, with works appearing in:

Chemical Engineering Science
Chemical Engineering Science X
Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology
IARJSET

The following papers by Hewitt were published:

An integrated method for measuring gas permeability and diffusivity of porous solids (2020, Chemical Engineering Science)
WITHDRAWN: An integrated method for measuring gas permeability and diffusivity of porous solids (2020, Chemical Engineering Science X)
Table of Contents (2021, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology)
Characterisation of Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Slug Flows in Horizontal Pipe (2023, IARJSET)

They collaborated frequently with several co-authors, including:

Shu San Manley
Patrick Steindl
Alexander Bismarck
Mary E. Fallat
Paige Hertweck

In 1994, Hewitt received the Max Jakob Memorial Award. They passed away prior to the current date, with their contributions remaining documented mainly in engineering-related disciplines and topics spanning fluid dynamics, environmental processes, and material mechanics.
