Dr. Shattuck has worked on physical scale modelling of resistivity well logging tools. This work resulted in the successful scale modelling of a standard induction logging tool and of an electrode-type tool known as the Shallow Laterolog. He is currently working on other scale models, with an emphasis on the through-casing resistivity tool. He has been working with other soil and rock property measurement projects, and assisted with studies of sewer pipe inspection systems.

Dr. Shattuck has also contributed to the 4th Edition of the textbook Electric Circuits by James Nilsson. He has served as a reviewer for several journals and textbook publishers.
