2006 - Hellman Fellow

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Telecommunications

His main research concerns Seismology, Mantle, Mantle plume, Hotspot and Warning system. His Seismology research incorporates elements of Earthquake warning system and Crust. Richard M. Allen has included themes like Plume and Lithosphere in his Mantle study.

He has included themes like Core–mantle boundary, Geophysics, Mantle wedge and Rift zone in his Mantle plume study. His Hotspot study incorporates themes from Seismic tomography and Transition zone. While the research belongs to areas of Warning system, Richard M. Allen spends his time largely on the problem of Peak ground acceleration, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Strong ground motion, 2008 California earthquake study, Particle displacement and Earthquake simulation.

His most cited work include:

  • The Potential for Earthquake Early Warning in Southern California (403 citations)
  • The Status of Earthquake Early Warning around the World: An Introductory Overview (208 citations)
  • Segmentation in episodic tremor and slip all along Cascadia (182 citations)

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

Richard M. Allen spends much of his time researching Seismology, Warning system, Earthquake warning system, Subduction and Geodesy. His studies deal with areas such as Mantle and Crust as well as Seismology. His Mantle research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plume and Lithosphere.

His Warning system research integrates issues from Geodetic datum, Real-time computing, P-wave and Forensic engineering. His Earthquake warning system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Earthquake casualty estimation, Early warning system and Epicenter. His work deals with themes such as Slab and Terrane, which intersect with Subduction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (59.72%)
  • Warning system (32.41%)
  • Earthquake warning system (14.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Warning system (32.41%)
  • Seismology (59.72%)
  • Forensic engineering (7.41%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Warning system, Seismology, Forensic engineering, Computer security and Geodetic datum. In his research, Submarine pipeline is intimately related to Real-time computing, which falls under the overarching field of Warning system. His study in Seismology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Citizen science and Shear wave splitting.

His research in Forensic engineering intersects with topics in Earthquake prediction, Ground shaking and Natural hazard. His Geodetic datum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ground motion, Large earthquakes and Moment magnitude scale. His research investigates the connection between Subduction and topics such as Slab that intersect with problems in Mantle flow and Margin.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Earthquake Early Warning: Advances, Scientific Challenges, and Societal Needs (46 citations)
  • Optimizing Earthquake Early Warning Performance: ElarmS‐3 (25 citations)
  • A Global Database of Strong‐Motion Displacement GNSS Recordings and an Example Application to PGD Scaling (23 citations)

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

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Seismology
  • Telecommunications

Richard M. Allen focuses on Warning system, Seismology, Forensic engineering, Subduction and Earthquake location. His Warning system study combines topics in areas such as Geodetic datum, Geodesy, Value, Design process and Data set. The study incorporates disciplines such as Slab and Seismic anisotropy in addition to Seismology.

His Forensic engineering research includes elements of Earthquake prediction and Ground shaking. His study on Farallon Plate is often connected to Deformation as part of broader study in Subduction.
