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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Composite material, Indentation, Fracture, Raman spectroscopy and Silicon. His Composite material research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Crystallography and Microscale chemistry. His Indentation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Material properties, Deformation, Brittleness, Inert and Toughness.

His research in Fracture intersects with topics in Mechanical engineering, Statistical physics and Fracture mechanics. Robert F. Cook combines subjects such as Deformation mechanism, Electron backscatter diffraction, Amorphous silicon and Microscopy with his study of Raman spectroscopy. His Silicon study incorporates themes from Cubic zirconia, Nano-, Polycrystalline silicon and Crystallite.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The compelling case for indentation as a functional exploratory and characterization tool (55 citations)
  • Fracture strength of micro- and nano-scale silicon components (51 citations)
  • Mechanical measurements of heterogeneity and length scale effects in PEG-based hydrogels (22 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Composite material
  • Polymer

His primary areas of study are Indentation, Composite material, Raman spectroscopy, Nanoindentation and Crystallography. Robert F. Cook interconnects Rheology, Poromechanics, Hyperelastic material, Deformation and Self-healing hydrogels in the investigation of issues within Indentation. His study in the field of Toughness, Fracture and Viscoelasticity is also linked to topics like Materials design and Scale effects.

The various areas that he examines in his Toughness study include Brittleness, Inert, Cracking and Ceramic. The study incorporates disciplines such as Residual stress and Fracture mechanics in addition to Fracture. His study in Raman spectroscopy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Deformation mechanism, Silicon and Microscopy.
