Quentin J. Fisher

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Sedimentary rock
• Paleontology
• Composite material

His primary areas of investigation include Mineralogy, Fault, Petrology, Sedimentary rock and Permeability. His Mineralogy study incorporates themes from Quartz and Biomineralization. His work deals with themes such as Fluid dynamics, Geotechnical engineering, Siliciclastic and Lithology, which intersect with Fault.

In general Geotechnical engineering study, his work on Petrophysics often relates to the realm of Population, thereby connecting several areas of interest. He usually deals with Sedimentary rock and limits it to topics linked to Compaction and Continental shelf. Quentin J. Fisher has researched Permeability in several fields, including Grain size and Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

• The permeability of faults within siliciclastic petroleum reservoirs of the North Sea and Norwegian Continental Shelf (260 citations)
• Mudrock-hosted carbonate concretions: a review of growth mechanisms and their influence on chemical and isotopic composition (197 citations)
• Fault sealing processes in siliciclastic sediments (179 citations)

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

Quentin J. Fisher spends much of his time researching Petrology, Permeability, Fluid dynamics, Mineralogy and Fault. His research in Petrology tackles topics such as Engineering geology which are related to areas like Economic geology. His work carried out in the field of Permeability brings together such families of science as Porosity, Knudsen diffusion, Oil shale and Geomorphology.

In his study, Stress is strongly linked to Geotechnical engineering, which falls under the umbrella field of Fluid dynamics. His Mineralogy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sedimentary rock and Deformation bands. Many of his research projects under Fault are closely connected to Population with Population, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

He most often published in these fields:

• Petrology (34.56%)
• Permeability (25.74%)
• Fluid dynamics (21.32%)

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

Quentin J. Fisher mainly focuses on Petrology, Permeability, Fault, Porosity and Petrophysics. His study in Petrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fluid dynamics and Tectonics. His study looks at the relationship between Permeability and fields such as Oil shale, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Fault research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Flow, Outcrop and Displacement. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Deformation mechanism and Mineralogy. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Standard sample and Shale gas.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Multi-scale approach for modeling the transversely isotropic elastic properties of shale considering multi-inclusions and interfacial transition zone (43 citations)
• Experimental study and numerical modeling of fracture propagation in shale rocks during Brazilian disk test (27 citations)
• Microstructure and petrophysical properties of deformation bands in high porosity carbonates (16 citations)

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

• Sedimentary rock
