Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Fluid dynamics

Neil M. Ribe mostly deals with Geophysics, Lithosphere, Mantle, Buoyancy and Seismic anisotropy. He has included themes like Swell, Subduction and Geometry in his Geophysics study. His Lithosphere study combines topics in areas such as Shear, Simple shear, Ridge and Geoid.

His work on Partial melting as part of his general Mantle study is frequently connected to Congruent melting, Solid solution and Eutectic system, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Buoyancy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mantle plume and Plume. He focuses mostly in the field of Seismic anisotropy, narrowing it down to topics relating to Slip and, in certain cases, Dislocation, Nucleation, Dimensionless quantity and Thermodynamics.

His most cited work include:

  • Three-dimensional modeling of plume-lithosphere interaction (239 citations)
  • The dynamical origin of Hawaiian volcanism (235 citations)
  • Seismic anisotropy and mantle flow (228 citations)

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

Neil M. Ribe focuses on Mechanics, Geophysics, Mantle, Lithosphere and Subduction. His research in the fields of Viscous liquid overlaps with other disciplines such as Falling. His Geophysics course of study focuses on Geometry and Deformation and Wavenumber.

The concepts of his Mantle study are interwoven with issues in Convection, Mantle convection and Dislocation creep. His Lithosphere study incorporates themes from Geoid, Swell, Plume, Ridge and Hotspot. His Subduction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Slab, Thin sheet and Seismic anisotropy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (33.61%)
  • Geophysics (26.89%)
  • Mantle (26.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Mechanics (33.61%)
  • Subduction (15.97%)
  • Mantle (26.89%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mechanics, Subduction, Mantle, Geophysics and Viscous liquid. His Mechanics research includes themes of Rope, Viscosity, Classical mechanics, Buckling and Capillary action. His Subduction research integrates issues from Slab, Thin sheet and Seismic anisotropy.

His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Swell, Convection, Mantle convection and Dislocation creep. His study in Geophysics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Plume and Tectonics, Lithosphere. His Viscous liquid research incorporates elements of Thread, Instability and Curvature.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bending mechanics and mode selection in free subduction: a thin-sheet analysis (105 citations)
  • Liquid Rope Coiling (91 citations)
  • Dynamics of free subduction from 3‐D boundary element modeling (50 citations)

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

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Fluid dynamics

Neil M. Ribe spends much of his time researching Mechanics, Viscous liquid, Mantle, Slab and Subduction. His research in Mechanics intersects with topics in Viscosity, Mineralogy, Creep, Dislocation creep and Bending. His studies deal with areas such as Rope, Thread, Instability and Curvature as well as Viscous liquid.

His work deals with themes such as Rheology, Strain rate, Convection and Buoyancy, which intersect with Mantle. His research on Slab concerns the broader Geophysics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Geoid, Mantle wedge and Pure shear in addition to Geophysics.
