Overview

R. James Kirkpatrick was affiliated with Michigan State University in the United States. Their research contributed to a variety of fields including geophysics, control and systems engineering, environmental engineering, mechanics of materials, and mechanical engineering. Kirkpatrick's work addressed multiple scientific topics such as CO2 sequestration and geologic interactions, hydrocarbon exploration and reservoir analysis, high-pressure geophysics and materials, process optimization and integration, advanced control systems optimization, extraction and separation processes, and NMR spectroscopy and applications.

Throughout their career, Kirkpatrick published papers in several venues. Frequent publication outlets included OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) with five publications, The Journal of Physical Chemistry C with two publications, Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, and European Neuropsychopharmacology.

Notable papers published by Kirkpatrick and collaborators included:

  • Role of Cations in the Methane/Carbon Dioxide Partitioning in Nano- and Mesopores of Illite Using Constant Reservoir Composition Molecular Dynamics Simulation, 2020, The Journal of Physical Chemistry C
  • Separation of middle boiling trace compounds by distillation: An investigation of practical implications of complex column arrangements on an industrial methanol distillation case study, 2020, Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering
  • Probing Pore Size and Connectivity in Porous Silicas Using 13C MAS NMR Spectroscopy of Supercritical Methane, 2020, The Journal of Physical Chemistry C
  • MACHINE LEARNING BASED PREDICTION OF MAJOR DEPRESSIVE disorder symptoms increases genomic discovery power, 2022, European Neuropsychopharmacology
  • Data for EMSL Project 49782 from May 2021, 2021, OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information)

Frequent coauthors included Geoffrey M. Bowers, Narasimhan Loganathan, Venkateswara Reddy Uddigiri, Haley Argersinger, and Raju Nanda. These collaborations supported diverse topics and complex multidisciplinary research efforts.
