Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction

Luce Fleitout mostly deals with Geophysics, Lithosphere, Mantle, Oceanic crust and Crust. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Shear, Mechanics and Thermal. Luce Fleitout interconnects Geodynamics and Convection in the investigation of issues within Lithosphere.

His Convection research incorporates themes from Viscosity and Newtonian fluid. Luce Fleitout integrates many fields in his works, including Mantle and Geoid. His Crust study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seismology, Stratification and Mountain formation.

His most cited work include:

  • Geoid heights and lithospheric stresses for a dynamic Earth. (302 citations)
  • Tectonics and topography for a lithosphere containing density heterogeneities (296 citations)
  • Mantle convection and stability of depleted and undepleted continental lithosphere (170 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Lithosphere, Geophysics, Mantle, Seismology and Geodesy. In his works, Luce Fleitout performs multidisciplinary study on Lithosphere and Geoid. His Geophysics research includes elements of Rheology, Asthenosphere, Shear, Lithospheric flexure and Oceanic crust.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Slab and Compression in addition to Asthenosphere. His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Thermal subsidence, Petrology, Mantle convection and Crust. He works mostly in the field of Geodesy, limiting it down to topics relating to Post-glacial rebound and, in certain cases, Sea level change, as a part of the same area of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Lithosphere (48.86%)
  • Geophysics (47.73%)
  • Mantle (28.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Geodesy (22.73%)
  • Seismology (22.73%)
  • Post-glacial rebound (9.09%)

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

Luce Fleitout mainly investigates Geodesy, Seismology, Post-glacial rebound, Viscoelasticity and Subduction. Luce Fleitout combines subjects such as Geodetic datum and Deglaciation with his study of Seismology. His Post-glacial rebound research integrates issues from Rheology and Sea level change.

His work focuses on many connections between Viscoelasticity and other disciplines, such as Relaxation, that overlap with his field of interest in Tectonophysics, Seismic cycle and Satellite geodesy. His studies deal with areas such as Viscosity and Geophysics as well as Asthenosphere. Many of his research projects under Geophysics are closely connected to Earth and Gravity anomaly with Earth and Gravity anomaly, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Afterslip and viscoelastic relaxation model inferred from the large-scale post-seismic deformation following the 2010 Mw 8.8 Maule earthquake (Chile) (66 citations)
  • The Seismic Sequence of the 16 September 2015 Mw 8.3 Illapel, Chile, Earthquake (54 citations)
  • Evidence for the release of long‐term tectonic strain stored in continental interiors through intraplate earthquakes (34 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Plate tectonics
  • Mechanics

Luce Fleitout focuses on Geodesy, Seismology, Megathrust earthquake, Scale and Viscoelasticity. His Megathrust earthquake research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Aftershock, Episodic tremor and slip and Seismogram. His research in Viscoelasticity intersects with topics in Rheology, Viscosity and Asthenosphere.

His studies in Seismic hazard integrate themes in fields like Intraplate earthquake, Tectonics and Glacial period. Luce Fleitout has included themes like Deglaciation, Lithosphere and Geophysics in his Intraplate earthquake study. His research on Lithosphere frequently links to adjacent areas such as Post-glacial rebound.
