Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics

His primary areas of investigation include Aquifer, Applied mathematics, Hydrology, Mathematical optimization and Mechanics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hydrogeology, Soil science and Contamination in addition to Aquifer. His Hydrogeology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Geostatistics and Econometrics.

His Hydrology research focuses on Dissolution and how it connects with Dispersion, Mixing and Freundlich equation. His Mathematical optimization research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Steady state, Inverse problem, Covariance, Water balance and Nonlinear system. His Mechanics research includes themes of Plume, Thermodynamics, Anisotropy and Porous medium.

His most cited work include:

  • Estimation of Aquifer Parameters Under Transient and Steady State Conditions: 1. Maximum Likelihood Method Incorporating Prior Information (748 citations)
  • Estimation of Aquifer Parameters Under Transient and Steady State Conditions: 2. Uniqueness, Stability, and Solution Algorithms (492 citations)
  • Numerical formulation for a simulator (CODE_BRIGHT) for the coupled analysis of saline media (419 citations)

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

Jesús Carrera focuses on Aquifer, Mechanics, Geotechnical engineering, Hydrology and Groundwater. Jesús Carrera is studying Groundwater recharge, which is a component of Aquifer. The Mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Mixing and Porous medium.

In his research on the topic of Mixing, Dissolution is strongly related with Thermodynamics. The concepts of his Geotechnical engineering study are interwoven with issues in Hydraulic conductivity and Flow. His research in Groundwater is mostly concerned with Groundwater flow.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Aquifer (21.10%)
  • Mechanics (15.60%)
  • Geotechnical engineering (15.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Aquifer (21.10%)
  • Hydrology (14.29%)
  • Soil science (10.33%)

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

His main research concerns Aquifer, Hydrology, Soil science, Mechanics and Groundwater recharge. Jesús Carrera has researched Aquifer in several fields, including Petroleum engineering, Degradation, Flow, Environmental chemistry and Borehole. His Soil science study incorporates themes from Hydrology and Groundwater.

He focuses mostly in the field of Mechanics, narrowing it down to topics relating to Porous medium and, in certain cases, Mass transfer and Flow. His Groundwater recharge research incorporates themes from Water quality, Environmental engineering and Residence time distribution. His research in Hydrogeology intersects with topics in Groundwater flow and Structural geology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Settlements around pumping wells: Analysis of influential factors and a simple calculation procedure (34 citations)
  • Hydrogeological assessment of non-linear underground enclosures (32 citations)
  • Quantification of groundwater recharge in urban environments. (25 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Groundwater

Jesús Carrera mostly deals with Aquifer, Groundwater recharge, Soil science, Hydrology and Groundwater. His study in Flow extends to Aquifer with its themes. Jesús Carrera has included themes like Optical fiber and Piezometer in his Soil science study.

The various areas that Jesús Carrera examines in his Hydrology study include Mixing ratio, Dissolution, Flow conditions and Residence time distribution. His research on Groundwater frequently links to adjacent areas such as Hydrogeology. His Hydrogeology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Groundwater model, Groundwater flow and Excavation.
