Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Structural engineering

Jorge G. Zornberg spends much of his time researching Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Structural engineering, Geotextile and Geogrid. Jorge G. Zornberg works in the field of Geotechnical engineering, namely Slope stability. The various areas that Jorge G. Zornberg examines in his Geosynthetics study include Creep and Soil reinforcement.

Many of his research projects under Structural engineering are closely connected to Transverse direction, Dilation and Multiple failure with Transverse direction, Dilation and Multiple failure, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. In Geogrid, he works on issues like Transverse plane, which are connected to Experimental testing, Rib cage and Shear resistance. His Ultimate tensile strength study incorporates themes from Residual strength, Direct shear test and Shear stress.

His most cited work include:

  • Behaviour of tire shred - sand mixtures (231 citations)
  • Performance of Geosynthetic Reinforced Slopes at Failure (123 citations)
  • Discrete framework for limit equilibrium analysis of fibre-reinforced soil (115 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Soil water, Structural engineering and Reinforcement. His Geotechnical engineering study combines topics in areas such as Hydraulic conductivity, Geogrid and Drainage. His studies deal with areas such as Transverse plane and Asphalt as well as Geogrid.

His Geosynthetics study also includes fields such as

  • Soil stabilization together with Slope stability,
  • Ultimate tensile strength that connect with fields like Creep. His Soil water research incorporates elements of Pore water pressure, Capillary action and Water content. His work on Mechanically stabilized earth, Lateral earth pressure, Bearing capacity and Retaining wall as part of general Structural engineering research is frequently linked to Numerical analysis, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (92.51%)
  • Geosynthetics (34.46%)
  • Soil water (19.10%)

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

  • Geotechnical engineering (92.51%)
  • Geosynthetics (34.46%)
  • Reinforcement (13.48%)

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

Jorge G. Zornberg mostly deals with Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Reinforcement, Soil water and Geogrid. His specific area of interest is Geotechnical engineering, where Jorge G. Zornberg studies Geotextile. Jorge G. Zornberg has researched Geotextile in several fields, including Geomembrane, Water content and Drainage.

His work focuses on many connections between Geosynthetics and other disciplines, such as Bridge, that overlap with his field of interest in Soil structure interaction and Service. His studies in Reinforcement integrate themes in fields like Shear, Asphalt pavement and Tension. The Shear strength research he does as part of his general Soil water study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Interface, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Centrifuge evaluation of the time-dependent behavior of geotextile-reinforced soil walls (21 citations)
  • Strain distribution along geogrid-reinforced asphalt overlays under traffic loading (18 citations)
  • Effect of infiltration on the performance of an unsaturated geotextile-reinforced soil wall (17 citations)

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

  • Composite material
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Structural engineering

His main research concerns Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Reinforcement, Stiffness and Soil water. His Geotechnical engineering study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Expansive clay. His work carried out in the field of Geosynthetics brings together such families of science as Asphalt, Geogrid and Drainage.

Jorge G. Zornberg works mostly in the field of Reinforcement, limiting it down to topics relating to Shear and, in certain cases, Cement and Curing. His research in Stiffness intersects with topics in Ultimate tensile strength, Composite number, Soil reinforcement and Lateral earth pressure. Jorge G. Zornberg studied Geotextile and Water content that intersect with Infiltration.
