Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Thermodynamics

His main research concerns Mechanics, Granular material, Classical mechanics, Geometry and Boundary value problem. His Mechanics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Optics. His study in Granular material is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inclined plane, Numerical integration, Curvature, Position and Angle of repose.

His Classical mechanics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wavelength, Similitude, Continuum and Thermoelastic damping. The concepts of his Geometry study are interwoven with issues in Equations for a falling body, Transverse plane, Finite difference and Sill. His Boundary value problem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Accretion, Debris flow, Dilatant, Thermodynamics and Ice sheet.

His most cited work include:

  • The motion of a finite mass of granular material down a rough incline (1168 citations)
  • The dynamics of avalanches of granular materials from initiation to runout. Part I: Analysis (385 citations)
  • Gravity-driven free surface flow of granular avalanches over complex basal topography (334 citations)

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

Kolumban Hutter mostly deals with Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Granular material, Thermodynamics and Free surface. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Boundary value problem and Mechanics. Kolumban Hutter does research in Classical mechanics, focusing on Cauchy stress tensor specifically.

His Granular material research incorporates elements of Inclined plane and Curvature. Kolumban Hutter studies Thermodynamic equilibrium, a branch of Thermodynamics. His Free surface study frequently involves adjacent topics like Geometry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (36.34%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Mechanics (36.34%)
  • Turbulence (8.10%)
  • Thermodynamics (9.72%)

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

His primary areas of study are Mechanics, Turbulence, Thermodynamics, Mathematical analysis and Flow. In Mechanics, Kolumban Hutter works on issues like Granular material, which are connected to Dilatant. His Turbulence study combines topics in areas such as Statistical physics and Dissipation.

His Mathematical analysis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Potential flow, Plane, Reynolds stress and Tensor. As part of one scientific family, Kolumban Hutter deals mainly with the area of Laminar flow, narrowing it down to issues related to the Reynolds number, and often Froude number and Similitude. Kolumban Hutter combines subjects such as Geotechnical engineering and Hydrostatic equilibrium with his study of Free surface.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nonhydrostatic granular flow over 3‐D terrain: New Boussinesq‐type gravity waves? (43 citations)
  • Fluid and Thermodynamics (14 citations)
  • Physics of Lakes: Volume 2: Lakes as Oscillators (13 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Thermodynamics

Kolumban Hutter focuses on Thermodynamics, Turbulence, Mechanics, K-epsilon turbulence model and K-omega turbulence model. His Thermodynamics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Statement and Structural material. His study looks at the intersection of Structural material and topics like Work with Flow.

His studies deal with areas such as Statistical physics and Nonlinear system as well as Turbulence. He has included themes like Isotropy, Geotechnical engineering and Hydrostatic equilibrium in his Mechanics study. His research on K-omega turbulence model frequently links to adjacent areas such as Classical mechanics.
