Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Composite material
  • Statistics

His primary areas of investigation include Fault, Petrology, Shale Gouge Ratio, Geotechnical engineering and Mineralogy. His Siliciclastic research extends to the thematically linked field of Petrology. His Shale Gouge Ratio study deals with Permeability intersecting with Lithology.

His work blends Geotechnical engineering and Fluid dynamics studies together. His Mineralogy research incorporates elements of Metamorphic rock, Tectonics, Outcrop, Geometry and Shear. His work in Deformation mechanism addresses subjects such as Deformation, which are connected to disciplines such as Cataclastic rock.

His most cited work include:

  • Deformation mechanisms — recognition from natural tectonites (269 citations)
  • The permeability of faults within siliciclastic petroleum reservoirs of the North Sea and Norwegian Continental Shelf (260 citations)
  • Transformation- and reaction-enhanced ductility in rocks (216 citations)

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

Robert J. Knipe focuses on Fault, Petrology, Geotechnical engineering, Fluid dynamics and Mineralogy. He has included themes like Geomorphology, Shear zone and Lithology in his Fault study. His Petrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cataclastic rock, Siliciclastic, Petrophysics, Permeability and Diagenesis.

His Geotechnical engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Displacement and Deformation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Mylonite, Strain rate, Metasomatism, Quartz and Microstructure in addition to Mineralogy. His studies examine the connections between Seismology and genetics, as well as such issues in Structural basin, with regards to Sedimentary rock.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fault (46.59%)
  • Petrology (36.36%)
  • Geotechnical engineering (22.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2020)?

  • Fault (46.59%)
  • Petrology (36.36%)
  • Structural basin (12.50%)

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

Fault, Petrology, Structural basin, Geotechnical engineering and Petroleum engineering are his primary areas of study. His Fault research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Brittleness, Geometry and Fracture. His Petrology research includes themes of Mineralogy, Geomorphology, Petrophysics, Stack and Crystal.

The Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Mylonite, Tectonics, Cement, Geochemistry and Microstructure. His Structural basin research includes elements of Seismology, Flexibility and Thrust fault. His study in the field of Shearing also crosses realms of Kinematics, Strain energy and Knowledge base.

Between 2004 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A review of fault sealing behaviour and its evaluation in siliciclastic rocks (50 citations)
  • Microstructures of Deformed and Non‐Deformed Sandstones from the North Sea: Implications for the Origins of Quartz Cement in Sandstones (41 citations)
  • Structurally complex reservoirs: an introduction (37 citations)

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

  • Brittleness
  • Composite material
  • Sedimentary rock
