Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Organic chemistry
  • Composite material

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geotechnical engineering, Geomembrane, Leachate, Waste management and Levee. R. Kerry Rowe studies Geotechnical engineering, namely Geotextile. His research investigates the connection between Geomembrane and topics such as High-density polyethylene that intersect with issues in Service life.

His Leachate research incorporates themes from Calcium carbonate, Hydraulic conductivity, Fermentation and Leaching. He works mostly in the field of Waste management, limiting it down to topics relating to Polyethylene and, in certain cases, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Benzene, as a part of the same area of interest. His Levee course of study focuses on Consolidation and Soil water, Drainage, Rapid construction and Pore water pressure.

His most cited work include:

  • Barrier Systems for Waste Disposal Facilities (302 citations)
  • Geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) - chemical compatibility by hydraulic conductivity testing and factors impacting its performance (214 citations)
  • Subsidence owing to tunnelling. I. Estimating the gap parameter (161 citations)

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

R. Kerry Rowe mostly deals with Geotechnical engineering, Geomembrane, Leachate, Geosynthetic clay liner and High-density polyethylene. R. Kerry Rowe regularly links together related areas like Hydraulic conductivity in his Geotechnical engineering studies. His Geomembrane research includes elements of Ultimate tensile strength, Service life and Landfill liner.

His studies in Leachate integrate themes in fields like Municipal solid waste, Environmental engineering and Drainage. His Geosynthetic clay liner study combines topics in areas such as Bentonite, Water content, Moisture, Subsoil and Overburden pressure. His High-density polyethylene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Linear low-density polyethylene, Degradation and Ethylbenzene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geotechnical engineering (65.82%)
  • Geomembrane (34.55%)
  • Leachate (26.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Geomembrane (34.55%)
  • Geotechnical engineering (65.82%)
  • High-density polyethylene (16.36%)

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

His primary areas of study are Geomembrane, Geotechnical engineering, High-density polyethylene, Geosynthetic clay liner and Geosynthetics. In Geomembrane, R. Kerry Rowe works on issues like Ultimate tensile strength, which are connected to Settlement. Geotechnical engineering is frequently linked to Shrinkage in his study.

His High-density polyethylene research integrates issues from Linear low-density polyethylene, Chemical engineering and Leachate. His Geosynthetic clay liner study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Subgrade, Overburden pressure and Void ratio. His work carried out in the field of Hydraulic conductivity brings together such families of science as Civil engineering and Geotechnics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Geosynthetic clay liners: Perceptions and misconceptions (28 citations)
  • Interface transmissivity of conventional and multicomponent GCLs for three permeants (17 citations)
  • Water retention of geosynthetics clay liners: Dependence on void ratio and temperature (16 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Composite material
  • Geotechnical engineering

Geotechnical engineering, Geomembrane, Geosynthetic clay liner, Geotextile and Levee are his primary areas of study. A large part of his Geotechnical engineering studies is devoted to Soil arching. R. Kerry Rowe interconnects Ultimate tensile strength, Stress, Shrinkage, Settlement and Stiffness in the investigation of issues within Geomembrane.

His studies deal with areas such as Containment, Leachate and Deformation as well as Settlement. His work deals with themes such as Bentonite, Void ratio, Overburden pressure and Subgrade, which intersect with Geosynthetic clay liner. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pile and Structural engineering in addition to Levee.
