  • A scientometric study of heat transfer Journal Literature from 1900 to 2017
    International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 2018
    Co-Authors: Ming-yueh Tsay, Chien-hui Lai
    Abstract:

    Abstract The present study conducts a scientometric study of the Journal Literature of heat transfer from 1900 to 2017 based on the database of Web of Science, 2018. A total of 120,628 items resulted from topic search using “heat transfer” as the search term. The results of this work reveal that the Literature on heat transfer grows exponentially with an annual growth rate of about 9.71% for the last century the first two decades of this century through the emergence of new subjects, identified through word cloud of authors' keywords. The document types, countries and languages, Journal distribution, number of authors, institution productivity and paper citations are analyzed. Highly productive Journals and authors and highly cited papers are identified. The results reveal that USA and China are the two most productive countries contributing 17.4% and 14.3%, respectively. About 90% of papers are published with co-authors and 73% of the paper was published with two to four authors. The author distribution follows the trend of Lotka's law, with 61.3% of the authors published only one paper, and 15.9% of the authors published two papers. International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer is the most productive Journal contributing 9.4% of the publications. Most highly cited papers are identified and found to be consist with the emergence of new subjects in heat transfer.

  • Bibliometric analysis of the Journal Literature on women’s studies
    Scientometrics, 2017
    Co-Authors: Ming-yueh Tsay, Chia-ning Li
    Abstract:

    This study uses bibliometric techniques to investigate the characteristics and implications of women’s studies Literature over the period from 1900 to 2013. Using computer analysis for bibliometric techniques, the results of the present study demonstrate that the Journal Literature on women’s studies has grown exponentially, with an annual growth rate of 10.6% for over one century. Most of the document types in the area of women’s studies are in the form of research articles, review articles and book reviews. The United States of America and the United Kingdom contribute the largest number of articles. One hundred and seventeen core Journals containing 33% of the women’s studies Journal articles have been identified through the application of Bradford’s law on Journal distribution. More than half of the 117 core Journals began publishing from 1970 to 1990, and most of these core Journals deal with the humanities (including Literature, history and philosophy), women’s studies, medical science, psychology, political science and sociology. The highly productive Journals associated with highly cited times are Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society, Women’s Studies International Forum, Sex Roles, Feminism and Psychology, Gender and Society, European Journal of Women’s Studies, American Historical Review, Psychology of Women Quarterly and Feminist Studies .

  • open access to the scientific Journal Literature situation 2009
    PLOS ONE, 2010
    Co-Authors: Bochrister Bjork, Patrik Welling, Mikael Laakso, Peter Majlender, Turid Hedlund, Guðni Guðnason
    Abstract:

    Background The Internet has recently made possible the free global availability of scientific Journal articles. Open Access (OA) can occur either via OA scientific Journals, or via authors posting manuscripts of articles published in subscription Journals in open web repositories. So far there have been few systematic studies showing how big the extent of OA is, in particular studies covering all fields of science. Methodology/Principal Findings The proportion of peer reviewed scholarly Journal articles, which are available openly in full text on the web, was studied using a random sample of 1837 titles and a web search engine. Of articles published in 2008, 8,5% were freely available at the publishers' sites. For an additional 11,9% free manuscript versions could be found using search engines, making the overall OA percentage 20,4%. Chemistry (13%) had the lowest overall share of OA, Earth Sciences (33%) the highest. In medicine, biochemistry and chemistry publishing in OA Journals was more common. In all other fields author-posted manuscript copies dominated the picture. Conclusions/Significance The results show that OA already has a significant positive impact on the availability of the scientific Journal Literature and that there are big differences between scientific disciplines in the uptake. Due to the lack of awareness of OA-publishing among scientists in most fields outside physics, the results should be of general interest to all scholars. The results should also interest academic publishers, who need to take into account OA in their business strategies and copyright policies, as well as research funders, who like the NIH are starting to require OA availability of results from research projects they fund. The method and search tools developed also offer a good basis for more in-depth studies as well as longitudinal studies.
