Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

Richard A. Schultz mainly focuses on Geotechnical engineering, Shear, Deformation bands, Geometry and Fault. Richard A. Schultz combines subjects such as Ultimate tensile strength and Compressive strength with his study of Geotechnical engineering. Richard A. Schultz usually deals with Shear and limits it to topics linked to Shearing and Cataclastic rock.

The various areas that Richard A. Schultz examines in his Deformation bands study include Compaction and Mineralogy. In general Geometry, his work in Scaling is often linked to Classification of discontinuities linking many areas of study. A large part of his Fault studies is devoted to Thrust fault.

His most cited work include:

  • Deformation bands in sandstone: a review (434 citations)
  • Limits on strength and deformation properties of jointed basaltic rock masses (188 citations)
  • Cubic law with aperture-length correlation: implications for network scale fluid flow (152 citations)

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

Seismology, Mars Exploration Program, Fault, Geomorphology and Geotechnical engineering are his primary areas of study. His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Slip, Deformation and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar. His research in Mars Exploration Program intersects with topics in Geophysics and Graben.

His research integrates issues of Deformation bands, Tectonics and Petrology in his study of Geomorphology. His Geotechnical engineering research includes elements of Shear, Geometry, Scaling and Ultimate tensile strength. His study in Shear is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Porosity, Mineralogy and Shearing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (21.69%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (21.08%)
  • Fault (18.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Geotechnical engineering (15.66%)
  • Fracture (7.23%)
  • Petroleum engineering (3.01%)

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

His primary areas of study are Geotechnical engineering, Fracture, Petroleum engineering, Seismology and Natural gas storage. His studies in Geotechnical engineering integrate themes in fields like Deformation bands and Microseism. His Seismology research incorporates elements of Structural basin, Geodesy, Interferometry, Interferometric synthetic aperture radar and Deformation.

His Structural basin study deals with Cretaceous intersecting with Tectonics. His research on Geomechanics also deals with topics like

  • Discontinuity that intertwine with fields like Geometry,
  • Structural geology that connect with fields like Geomorphology. His Shear study which covers Grain size that intersects with Cataclastic rock.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A model of strain localization in porous sandstone as a function of tectonic setting, burial and material properties; new insight from Provence (southern France) (53 citations)
  • A review of deformation bands in reservoir sandstones: geometries, mechanisms and distribution (34 citations)
  • Statistical tests of scaling relationships for geologic structures (31 citations)

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

  • Composite material
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geotechnical engineering, Shear, Compaction, Deformation bands and Cataclastic rock. His work on Tensile fracture as part of general Geotechnical engineering research is often related to Volume, thus linking different fields of science. His study looks at the intersection of Shear and topics like Porosity with Granular material.

His research in Compaction focuses on subjects like Geometry, which are connected to Dilatant, Discontinuity and Dike. The study incorporates disciplines such as Structural basin, Geomorphology and Pressure solution in addition to Deformation bands. To a larger extent, Richard A. Schultz studies Tectonics with the aim of understanding Cataclastic rock.
