Shiro Kobayashi D-index placement in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering in 2026 - data summary

  • The chart plots the discipline H-index (D-index) of all 3,445 Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering scientists ranked by Research.com in 2026, grouped into 64 ranges running from 30 to 93+ D-Index.
  • Shiro Kobayashi, a Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering scholar from University of California, Berkeley, records 33 D-Index - the 14th percentile of the discipline.
  • 14% of ranked Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering scientists score the same or lower than Shiro Kobayashi, and about 86% score higher.
  • The median of the discipline falls in the 43 D-Index range, and Shiro Kobayashi ranks below the median.
  • The most crowded range is 34 D-Index, holding 189 scientists (5% of the field).
  • 57% of the field sits in the lowest quarter of the value range (up to 45 D-Index), so the distribution is heavily right-skewed and high scores are rare.
  • The final bar has no upper bound: it groups every scientist with 93 D-Index or more, 100 scientists in all (3% of the field).

Overview

Shiro Kobayashi was affiliated with the University of California, Berkeley in the United States. The professional career and contributions of this researcher were associated primarily with this institution.

There are no recorded recent papers, co-authors, or frequent publication venues specifically linked to Kobayashi's body of work in the available data. Consequently, there is no direct evidence of publications or collaborative networks that can be outlined.

Similarly, information regarding main fields of study, subfields, or specific research topics has not been documented. No book publications or awards have been recorded, limiting insight into the broader scholarly impact or recognition received during Kobayashi's career.

The scientific profile, therefore, highlights a figure linked to a notable university but without detailed public records of particular research outputs, collaborations, or academic distinctions in the accessible data. Kobayashi is deceased.
