Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Fluid dynamics

His main research concerns Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Flow, Reynolds number and Vorticity. Timothy J. Pedley is interested in Fluid dynamics, which is a branch of Mechanics. His research integrates issues of Squirmer, Multicellular organism, Boundary element method, Computer simulation and Surface velocity in his study of Classical mechanics.

His Flow research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Collapsible tube, Flow separation, Adverse pressure gradient and Equations of motion. His work deals with themes such as Orientation, Pipe flow, Open-channel flow and Inertia, which intersect with Reynolds number. His Vorticity research includes elements of Strain rate and Hagen–Poiseuille equation.

His most cited work include:

  • The Mechanics of the Circulation (900 citations)
  • The fluid mechanics of large blood vessels (862 citations)
  • Hydrodynamic Phenomena in Suspensions of Swimming Microorganisms (588 citations)

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

Timothy J. Pedley mainly investigates Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Flow, Reynolds number and Squirmer. His studies in Instability, Flow, Fluid dynamics, Pipe flow and Vorticity are all subfields of Mechanics research. The Classical mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Volvox, Fluid mechanics and Beat.

His Flow research incorporates themes from Collapsible tube, Flow separation, Tension and Pressure gradient. In his study, Dissipation is strongly linked to Hagen–Poiseuille equation, which falls under the umbrella field of Reynolds number. His work investigates the relationship between Squirmer and topics such as Geometry that intersect with problems in Finite element method.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (59.01%)
  • Classical mechanics (26.09%)
  • Flow (17.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Mechanics (59.01%)
  • Classical mechanics (26.09%)
  • Squirmer (10.56%)

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

His primary areas of study are Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Squirmer, Volvox carteri and Circulation. His Mechanics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Torque, Angular velocity and Inertia. Timothy J. Pedley has researched Classical mechanics in several fields, including Boundary element method and Beat.

His study on Squirmer also encompasses disciplines like

  • Shear stress and Dimensionless quantity most often made with reference to Radius,
  • Stokesian dynamics and related Mathematical analysis. His Circulation research includes themes of Wavelength, Engineering ethics, Body weight, Vascular resistance and Applied mathematics. His Instability research incorporates elements of Couette flow, Convection and Flow.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Mechanics of the Circulation (900 citations)
  • Hydrodynamic synchronization and metachronal waves on the surface of the colonial alga Volvox carteri. (87 citations)
  • Spherical squirmers: models for swimming micro-organisms (62 citations)

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

  • Mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Fluid dynamics

Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Volvox carteri, Suspension and Instability are his primary areas of study. Timothy J. Pedley works in the field of Mechanics, namely Circulation. His study in Classical mechanics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Parameter space, Thermal diffusivity and Compressibility.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Boundary element method, Stokesian dynamics, Pipe flow and Volumetric flow rate. His research in Instability intersects with topics in Couette flow, Complex fluid, Shear and Shear. His studies examine the connections between Scaling and genetics, as well as such issues in Linear stability, with regards to Open-channel flow, Inviscid flow and Flow.
