Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Geometry
  • Composite material
  • Mathematical analysis

Stephen C. Cowin spends much of his time researching Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Anatomy, Elasticity and Anisotropy. His research integrates issues of Wavelength, Structural engineering and Bone canaliculus in his study of Mechanics. His Structural engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rheology, Relaxation, Simple shear, Biot number and Porous medium.

Stephen C. Cowin has researched Bone canaliculus in several fields, including Porosity and Osteocyte. In the field of Classical mechanics, his study on Stress overlaps with subjects such as Complex system and Linear elasticity. His work in the fields of Bone tissue and Cortical bone overlaps with other areas such as Epigenetics and Morphogenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Inequalities in mechanics and physics (1751 citations)
  • A model for the excitation of osteocytes by mechanical loading-induced bone fluid shear stresses (1013 citations)
  • A model for the excitation of osteocytes by mechanical loading-induced bone fluid shear stresses (1013 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Mechanics, Anisotropy, Poromechanics, Classical mechanics and Composite material. His research on Mechanics also deals with topics like

  • Structural engineering that connect with fields like Shear stress,
  • Osteon which is related to area like Fluid dynamics,
  • Bone remodeling that connect with fields like Anatomy. His Anisotropy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geometry, Homogeneous space, Mathematical analysis and Cancellous bone.

His Poromechanics research integrates issues from Biot number and Wave propagation. The various areas that Stephen C. Cowin examines in his Classical mechanics study include Granular material and Cauchy elastic material. His Porosity study also includes fields such as

  • Permeability that intertwine with fields like Cortical bone,
  • Bone tissue which is related to area like Biomechanics and Neuroscience,
  • Bone cell, which have a strong connection to Osteocyte.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (30.99%)
  • Anisotropy (20.66%)
  • Poromechanics (18.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Poromechanics (18.60%)
  • Mechanics (30.99%)
  • Porosity (11.57%)

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

Stephen C. Cowin mainly focuses on Poromechanics, Mechanics, Porosity, Biot number and Anisotropy. Stephen C. Cowin has included themes like Wave propagation, Cancellous bone, Compressibility and Tensor in his Poromechanics study. His study looks at the relationship between Mechanics and fields such as Attenuation, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Porosity research includes themes of Bone tissue and Permeability. His work in Biot number addresses subjects such as Mathematical analysis, which are connected to disciplines such as Elasticity, Geometry, Microstructure and Micromechanics. Stephen C. Cowin has researched Interstitial fluid flow in several fields, including Cortical bone and Anatomy.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Advances in assessment of bone porosity, permeability and interstitial fluid flow☆ (105 citations)
  • Hierarchical poroelasticity: movement of interstitial fluid between porosity levels in bones (81 citations)
  • Blood and interstitial flow in the hierarchical pore space architecture of bone tissue (71 citations)

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

  • Geometry
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Composite material

Stephen C. Cowin mainly investigates Poromechanics, Biomedical engineering, Mechanics, Bone tissue and Tensor. Stephen C. Cowin interconnects Cancellous bone, Wave propagation, Biot number, Speed of sound and Anisotropy in the investigation of issues within Poromechanics. Stephen C. Cowin works mostly in the field of Mechanics, limiting it down to topics relating to Porous medium and, in certain cases, Forensic engineering.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Porosity, Bone cell and Interstitial fluid in addition to Bone tissue. His Interstitial fluid research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mechanotransduction and Anatomy. His work deals with themes such as Hyperelastic material, Continuum mechanics, Equations of motion, Classical mechanics and Conservation law, which intersect with Tensor.
