Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Thermodynamics
  • Geotechnical engineering

Pierre Delage mainly focuses on Geotechnical engineering, Mineralogy, Swelling, Bentonite and Scanning electron microscope. The Geotechnical engineering study combines topics in areas such as Constitutive equation, Wetting, Soil mechanics and Suction. His Soil mechanics research incorporates elements of Proctor compaction test and Silt.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Porosity and Water content in addition to Mineralogy. His Bentonite study incorporates themes from Hydraulic conductivity, Swell and Composite material, Microstructure. His Scanning electron microscope research incorporates elements of Porosimetry and Mercury intrusion porosimetry.

His most cited work include:

  • Yielding and plastic behaviour of an unsaturated compacted silt (437 citations)
  • Study of the structure of a sensitive Champlain clay and of its evolution during consolidation (356 citations)
  • The relationship between suction and swelling properties in a heavily compacted unsaturated clay (322 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Suction, Composite material and Microstructure. His Geotechnical engineering research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Water retention, Swelling and Radioactive waste. The concepts of his Swelling study are interwoven with issues in Bentonite and Clay minerals.

His studies in Soil water integrate themes in fields like Silt, Constitutive equation and Water content. Pierre Delage interconnects Stress, Tensiometer and Soil mechanics in the investigation of issues within Suction. His Microstructure study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wetting, Mineralogy and Scanning electron microscope.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (54.04%)
  • Soil water (17.02%)
  • Suction (15.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Geotechnical engineering (54.04%)
  • Seismometer (4.68%)
  • Swelling (12.34%)

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

Pierre Delage spends much of his time researching Geotechnical engineering, Seismometer, Swelling, Microstructure and Pore water pressure. His Geotechnical engineering research incorporates themes from Soil water and Duricrust. His Swelling research includes elements of Geochemistry and Clay minerals.

His study on Clay minerals also encompasses disciplines like

  • Matrix and related Suction,
  • Wetting that connect with fields like Pellets. Microstructure is closely attributed to Water retention in his research. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Pore water pressure, Thermal expansion, Exothermic reaction, Transverse isotropy and Creep is strongly linked to Thermal.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • SEIS: Insight’s Seismic Experiment for Internal Structure of Mars (81 citations)
  • Constraints on the shallow elastic and anelastic structure of Mars from InSight seismic data (58 citations)
  • Geology and Physical Properties Investigations by the InSight Lander (40 citations)

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

  • Composite material
  • Thermodynamics
  • Geotechnical engineering

His main research concerns Seismometer, Regolith, Geotechnical engineering, Seismology and Pore water pressure. His Seismometer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Attenuation and Microseism. The various areas that Pierre Delage examines in his Geotechnical engineering study include Creep, Thermal expansion and Thermoelastic damping.

His study in Seismology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Young's modulus, Inversion and Compaction. His work carried out in the field of Pore water pressure brings together such families of science as Effective stress and Rock mechanics. In Mineralogy, Pierre Delage works on issues like Wetting, which are connected to Water retention.
