Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Structural engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Civil engineering

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Structural engineering, Shape-memory alloy, Earthquake engineering, Fragility and SMA*. He interconnects Geotechnical engineering and Reliability engineering in the investigation of issues within Structural engineering. His Shape-memory alloy research includes themes of Hinge, Compression, Pseudoelasticity and Dissipation.

His research investigates the connection with Earthquake engineering and areas like Ground motion which intersect with concerns in Frame, Structural mechanics and Bridge engineering. His Fragility research integrates issues from Bridge, Reliability and Seismic risk, Civil engineering. His research on SMA* also deals with topics like

  • Buckling that connect with fields like Earthquake resistant structures,
  • Earthquake shaking table and Abutment most often made with reference to Vibration control.

His most cited work include:

  • Seismic fragility of typical bridges in moderate seismic zones (369 citations)
  • CYCLIC PROPERTIES OF SUPERELASTIC SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY WIRES AND BARS (369 citations)
  • Seismic fragility methodology for highway bridges using a component level approach (288 citations)

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

Reginald DesRoches mainly investigates Structural engineering, Shape-memory alloy, Fragility, Geotechnical engineering and Bridge. His research integrates issues of Seismic risk and SMA* in his study of Structural engineering. His Shape-memory alloy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pseudoelasticity, Martensite, Constitutive equation and Dissipation.

The Fragility study combines topics in areas such as Reliability, Probabilistic logic, Civil engineering and Forensic engineering. His research in Civil engineering intersects with topics in Seismic retrofit and Risk assessment. His research investigates the connection between Geotechnical engineering and topics such as Induced seismicity that intersect with issues in Girder and Earthquake resistant structures.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Structural engineering (75.11%)
  • Shape-memory alloy (29.96%)
  • Fragility (21.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Structural engineering (75.11%)
  • Fragility (21.94%)
  • Bridge (16.46%)

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

Reginald DesRoches focuses on Structural engineering, Fragility, Bridge, Geotechnical engineering and Probabilistic logic. His Seismic risk research extends to the thematically linked field of Structural engineering. His Fragility research includes elements of Material properties, Earthquake hazard, Nonlinear system, Multi frame and Seismic analysis.

His Bridge research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Nonparametric statistics, Analysis of covariance, Risk assessment and Forensic engineering. His Geotechnical engineering research is multidisciplinary, relying on both OpenSees, Limit state design, Induced seismicity and Sensitivity. His work carried out in the field of Probabilistic logic brings together such families of science as Reliability engineering and Operations research.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Temporal evolution of seismic fragility curves for concrete box-girder bridges in California (53 citations)
  • Framework of aftershock fragility assessment–case studies: older California reinforced concrete building frames (44 citations)
  • Fragility curves for non-ductile reinforced concrete frames that exhibit different component response mechanisms (42 citations)

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

  • Structural engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Thermodynamics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Structural engineering, Fragility, Geotechnical engineering, Box girder and Frame. Reginald DesRoches works in the field of Structural engineering, namely Bridge. His Fragility study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Seismic analysis and Nonlinear system.

He works mostly in the field of Geotechnical engineering, limiting it down to concerns involving Limit state design and, occasionally, System risk, Girder and Incremental Dynamic Analysis. His Box girder research incorporates themes from Multi frame, Bayesian parameter estimation, Parameterized complexity and Abutment. Reginald DesRoches has researched Frame in several fields, including Fibre-reinforced plastic, Beam, Seismic loading, Shake and Full scale.
