1983 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Paul W. Webb is best known for:

  • Trout
  • Centrarchidae
  • Drag coefficient

His Fishery study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Rainbow trout. His study ties his expertise on Rainbow trout together with the subject of Fish <Actinopterygii>. As part of his studies on Ecology, Paul W. Webb often connects relevant areas like Centrarchidae. Paul W. Webb regularly links together related areas like Ecology in his Centrarchidae studies. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Classical mechanics and Acceleration. Acceleration and Kinematics are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. Kinematics is closely attributed to Fish locomotion in his study. His Fish locomotion study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Classical mechanics. His Dimensionless quantity research extends to Mechanics, which is thematically connected.

His most cited work include:

  • Fast-start Performance and Body Form in Seven Species of Teleost Fish (301 citations)
  • The effect of size on the fast-start performance of rainbow trout Salmo gairdneri, and a consideration of piscivorous predator-prey interactions (293 citations)
  • The Swimming Energetics of Trout (237 citations)

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

His Anatomy research integrates issues from Fishery, Fish <Actinopterygii>, Fish fin and Fin, Composite material. His Fishery study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Salmo. His research on Fish fin, Rainbow trout, Trout and Salmo is centered around Fish <Actinopterygii>. His Fin research extends to the thematically linked field of Composite material. His Classical mechanics research is intertwined with Acceleration and Kinematics. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Kinematics and Classical mechanics in his work. Paul W. Webb integrates many fields, such as Electrical engineering and engineering, in his works. In his works, Paul W. Webb undertakes multidisciplinary study on Optoelectronics and Electrical engineering. He frequently studies issues relating to Drag and Mechanics.

Paul W. Webb most often published in these fields:

  • Fishery (56.52%)
  • Fish <Actinopterygii> (54.35%)
  • Mechanics (28.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2011)?

  • Mechanics (66.67%)
  • Vortex (66.67%)
  • Turbulence (66.67%)

In recent works Paul W. Webb was focusing on the following fields of study:

Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Flow (mathematics) and Mechanics. His Flow (mathematics) study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Mechanics. Paul W. Webb integrates many fields, such as Vortex and Wake, in his works. He integrates several fields in his works, including Wake and Turbulence. Paul W. Webb undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Turbulence and Vorticity through his works. His research on Vorticity often connects related topics like Thermodynamics. His studies link Eddy with Thermodynamics. Eddy and Vortex are two areas of study in which Paul W. Webb engages in interdisciplinary research. His study in Fish <Actinopterygii> extends to Fishery with its themes.

Between 2004 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • Turbulence: Does Vorticity Affect the Structure and Shape of Body and Fin Propulsors? (44 citations)
  • Use of fine-scale current refuges by fishes in a temperate warm-water stream (11 citations)
  • BUOYANCY, LOCOMOTION, AND MOVEMENT IN FISHES | Stability and Turbulence (5 citations)
