Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Finite element method
  • Geotechnical engineering

J. R. Booker spends much of his time researching Geotechnical engineering, Consolidation, Finite element method, Mathematical analysis and Structural engineering. The Geotechnical engineering study which covers Plasticity that intersects with Elasto plastic and Soil mechanics. The Consolidation study combines topics in areas such as Biot number, Elasticity, Pore water pressure and Analytic solution.

His Finite element method study incorporates themes from Settlement, Soil stabilization and Fourier transform, Hankel transform. His work in the fields of Laplace transform and Multigrid method overlaps with other areas such as Collocation method and Computer science. His research in Pile tackles topics such as Soil structure interaction which are related to areas like Deformation and Stress.

His most cited work include:

  • Cavity expansion in cohesive frictional soils (249 citations)
  • Analysis of rigid rafts supported by granular piles (223 citations)
  • SHAKEDOWN OF PAVEMENTS UNDER MOVING SURFACE LOADS (189 citations)

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

J. R. Booker focuses on Geotechnical engineering, Finite element method, Consolidation, Structural engineering and Mathematical analysis. He has included themes like Soil water, Soil mechanics and Mechanics in his Geotechnical engineering study. His Finite element method research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fourier transform and Viscoelasticity.

His research in Consolidation focuses on subjects like Radioactive waste, which are connected to Thermal expansion. His Stiffness study in the realm of Structural engineering interacts with subjects such as Method of analysis, Parametric statistics and Poisson's ratio. In his research on the topic of Mathematical analysis, Stress is strongly related with Displacement.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (44.83%)
  • Finite element method (31.90%)
  • Consolidation (26.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1994-2017)?

  • Boundary element method (6.03%)
  • Porous medium (6.90%)
  • Mechanics (21.55%)

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

J. R. Booker mostly deals with Boundary element method, Porous medium, Mechanics, Geotechnical engineering and Groundwater. His work carried out in the field of Boundary element method brings together such families of science as Numerical analysis, Mathematical analysis and Boundary value problem. J. R. Booker works mostly in the field of Porous medium, limiting it down to topics relating to Laplace transform and, in certain cases, Time derivative, Mixed finite element method, Finite difference and Fourier transform, as a part of the same area of interest.

His work on Mass transfer and Fully coupled as part of general Mechanics study is frequently linked to Transient and Mathematical model, bridging the gap between disciplines. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Mass transfer, focusing on Fissure and, on occasion, Finite element method. His Geotechnical engineering research includes elements of Classification of discontinuities and Dispersion.

Between 1994 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Contaminant transport through an unsaturated soil liner beneath a landfill (43 citations)
  • SURFACE DISPLACEMENTS OF A NON‐HOMOGENEOUS ELASTIC HALF‐SPACE SUBJECTED TO UNIFORM SURFACE TRACTIONS. PART II: LOADING ON RECTANGULAR SHAPED AREAS (21 citations)
  • Boundary element analysis of linear thermoelastic consolidation (18 citations)

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

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Finite element method
  • Geotechnical engineering

Numerical analysis, Boundary element method, Soil water, Geotechnical engineering and Advection are his primary areas of study. His Numerical analysis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Young's modulus, Singularity, Surface and Computer simulation. J. R. Booker has included themes like Groundwater pollution, Environmental engineering, Porous medium and Groundwater in his Boundary element method study.

His work on Dispersion and Vadose zone as part of general Soil water research is frequently linked to Pollution, bridging the gap between disciplines.
