What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Geometry
- Subduction
Luc L. Lavier mainly focuses on Seismology, Fault, Transform fault, Subduction and Episodic tremor and slip.
His study in Seismology focuses on Oceanic core complex in particular.
He has included themes like Geotechnical engineering, Cohesion, Stress and Plasticity in his Fault study.
The concepts of his Transform fault study are interwoven with issues in Ridge, Mid-ocean ridge, Plate tectonics, Magmatism and Oceanic crust.
His research integrates issues of Fracture zone and Fracture in his study of Subduction.
His Episodic tremor and slip research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Volcanism and Eclogitization.
His most cited work include:
- A mechanism to thin the continental lithosphere at magma-poor margins (415 citations)
- Catastrophic initiation of subduction following forced convergence across fracture zones (286 citations)
- Evolving force balance during incipient subduction (269 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Luc L. Lavier mainly investigates Seismology, Lithosphere, Petrology, Rift and Paleontology.
His Seismology research focuses on Subduction, Fault, Tectonophysics, Continental margin and Tectonics.
Luc L. Lavier works mostly in the field of Fault, limiting it down to topics relating to Ridge and, in certain cases, Plate tectonics, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Lithosphere research incorporates themes from Flexural strength and Geophysics.
His Rift research includes themes of Necking, Mantle and Crust.
His study in the fields of Cenozoic and Terrigenous sediment under the domain of Paleontology overlaps with other disciplines such as Margin.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (37.82%)
- Lithosphere (25.00%)
- Petrology (23.08%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Tectonophysics (14.74%)
- Petrology (23.08%)
- Seismology (37.82%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Tectonophysics, Petrology, Seismology, Lithosphere and Rift.
He focuses mostly in the field of Tectonophysics, narrowing it down to matters related to Subduction and, in some cases, Metamorphic core complex.
The Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Brittleness, Magma and Continental crust.
His work investigates the relationship between Seismology and topics such as Slip that intersect with problems in Finite thickness.
His studies in Lithosphere integrate themes in fields like Geophysics and Mid-ocean ridge.
His work deals with themes such as Geochemistry and Crust, which intersect with Rift.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Thermal evolution of a hyperextended rift basin, Mauléon Basin, western Pyrenees (38 citations)
- The effect of bimineralic composition on extensional processes at lithospheric scale (22 citations)
- On spreading modes and magma supply at slow and ultraslow mid-ocean ridges (19 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Subduction
- Composite material
His main research concerns Lithosphere, Rift, Seismology, Petrology and Shear zone.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Lithosphere, Geophysics are connected with Continental margin and other disciplines.
His research investigates the connection with Rift and areas like Crust which intersect with concerns in Brittleness, Deformation and Mantle.
As a member of one scientific family, Luc L. Lavier mostly works in the field of Seismology, focusing on Shear and, on occasion, Transform fault, Deformation and Strain partitioning.
His Petrology study incorporates themes from Tectonics and Ridge, Mid-ocean ridge.
His Shear zone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Slip, Fault, Mechanics and Detachment fault.
