Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study John Z. Wu is best known for:

  • Thumb
  • Mechanical impedance
  • Electrical impedance

His Internal medicine study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Subcutaneous injection and Strain (injury). His work on Internal medicine expands to the thematically related Strain (injury). His Structural engineering study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Substructure. He incorporates Vibration and Normal mode in his research. His Acoustics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Weighting. His Weighting study frequently links to other fields, such as Acoustics. His Quantum mechanics study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Power (physics). His research on Power (physics) often connects related topics like Quantum mechanics. His Anatomy study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Interphalangeal Joint.

His most cited work include:

  • Analysis of effects of friction on the deformation behavior of soft tissues in unconfined compression tests (83 citations)
  • A method for analyzing absorbed power distribution in the hand and arm substructures when operating vibrating tools (68 citations)
  • Modeling of biodynamic responses distributed at the fingers and the palm of the human hand–arm system (59 citations)

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

Joint (building) is closely connected to Structural engineering in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Finite element method. Among his Anatomy studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Biomechanics and Surgery. John Z. Wu performs multidisciplinary studies into Surgery and Anatomy in his work. His Weighting research extends to the thematically linked field of Acoustics. His research links Acoustics with Weighting. John Z. Wu integrates Vibration and Vibration isolation in his studies. His research links Transmissibility (structural dynamics) with Vibration isolation. Much of his study explores Transmissibility (structural dynamics) relationship to Vibration. Quantum mechanics connects with themes related to Palm in his study.

John Z. Wu most often published in these fields:

  • Structural engineering (54.24%)
  • Acoustics (47.46%)
  • Vibration (44.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation (60.00%)
  • Surgery (40.00%)
  • Mechanical engineering (40.00%)

In recent works John Z. Wu was focusing on the following fields of study:

In his research on the topic of Tower, Shock absorber is strongly related with Structural engineering. His study brings together the fields of Structural engineering and Shock absorber. His work on Acoustics as part of his general Vibration study is frequently connected to Aeronautics and Forensic engineering, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. John Z. Wu integrates several fields in his works, including Acoustics and Vibration. He integrates Physical medicine and rehabilitation with Physical therapy in his study. Borrowing concepts from Physical medicine and rehabilitation, he weaves in ideas under Physical therapy. His Surgery study often links to related topics such as Lower limb. Mechanical engineering is closely attributed to Internal rotation in his research. He carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Pathology and Anatomy.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Assessing work-related risk factors for musculoskeletal knee disorders in construction roofing tasks (17 citations)
  • A Review of Hand–Arm Vibration Studies Conducted by US NIOSH since 2000 (10 citations)
  • Effects of working posture and roof slope on activation of lower limb muscles during shingle installation (8 citations)
