1988 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Groundwater

His scientific interests lie mostly in Porous medium, Groundwater, Aquifer, Hydrology and Geotechnical engineering. He combines subjects such as Mechanics, Transport phenomena and Dispersion with his study of Porous medium. His studies in Mechanics integrate themes in fields like Anisotropic porous medium, Fluid flow through porous media and Dynamics.

The concepts of his Groundwater study are interwoven with issues in Hydraulics, Water quality and Civil engineering. His study in the field of Groundwater flow is also linked to topics like Density dependent. His Geotechnical engineering study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Fluid dynamics and Flow conditions.

His most cited work include:

  • Dynamics of fluids in porous media (9454 citations)
  • Hydraulics of Groundwater (2376 citations)
  • Dynamics of fluids in porous media (1340 citations)

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

Jacob Bear spends much of his time researching Porous medium, Mechanics, Aquifer, Groundwater and Geotechnical engineering. As a part of the same scientific study, Jacob Bear usually deals with the Porous medium, concentrating on Representative elementary volume and frequently concerns with Continuum. The Mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Hydraulic head and Advection.

His Aquifer research focuses on Vadose zone and how it relates to Environmental engineering. Jacob Bear focuses mostly in the field of Groundwater, narrowing it down to matters related to Civil engineering and, in some cases, Soil mechanics. His studies deal with areas such as Multiphase flow and Petroleum engineering as well as Geotechnical engineering.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Porous medium (47.59%)
  • Mechanics (33.69%)
  • Aquifer (30.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2019)?

  • Porous medium (47.59%)
  • Aquifer (30.48%)
  • Mechanics (33.69%)

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

Jacob Bear mainly investigates Porous medium, Aquifer, Mechanics, Groundwater and Water table. The Porous medium study combines topics in areas such as Equations of motion and Transport phenomena, Thermodynamics. In the field of Aquifer, his study on Groundwater flow overlaps with subjects such as Decision maker, Test functions for optimization and Set.

His Mechanics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Stress–strain curve and Advection. In his work, Natural, Water cycle, Groundwater resources and Water supply is strongly intertwined with Water resource management, which is a subfield of Groundwater. Jacob Bear interconnects Groundwater model and Subsurface flow in the investigation of issues within Water table.

Between 2005 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Modeling Groundwater Flow and Contaminant Transport (336 citations)
  • Sixty years of global progress in managed aquifer recharge (106 citations)
  • Modelling and Applications of Transport Phenomena in Porous Media (61 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Mathematical analysis

Jacob Bear mostly deals with Porous medium, Groundwater, Aquifer, Mechanics and Hydrology. In his work, Jacob Bear performs multidisciplinary research in Porous medium and Void space. His work deals with themes such as Emerging technologies and Water resource management, which intersect with Groundwater.

His Aquifer study incorporates themes from Sharp interface and Transition zone. Jacob Bear has researched Mechanics in several fields, including Geometry and Contact angle. The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil science, Groundwater flow, Surface water, Mass balance and Vadose zone in addition to Groundwater recharge.
