The journal explores disciplines such as Composite material, Cement, Compressive strength, Asphalt and Geotechnical engineering. Mortar, Ultimate tensile strength, Aggregate (composite), Cementitious and Cracking are Composite material topics of special interest in the journal. Cementitious research presented in Advances in Civil Engineering Materials encompasses a variety of subjects, including Shrinkage and Chemical engineering.
While the journal focused on Cement, it was also able to explore topics like Curing (chemistry), Fly ash and Durability. The Fly ash research discussed is included in the broader subject of Waste management. The journal addresses concerns in Compressive strength which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Flexural strength, Microstructure and Porosity.
Topics in Flexural strength were tackled in line with various other fields like Beam (structure), Toughness and Fiber-reinforced concrete. The work on Asphalt tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Moisture and Rheology. The Geotechnical engineering study featured in it draws parallels with the field of Soil water.
The journal articles investigate areas of study like Composite material, Cement, Geotechnical engineering, Portland cement and Mortar. The published papers primarily discuss Composite material topics, particularly Durability, Porosity, Asphalt pavement, Cementitious and Cracking. Issues in Cement were discussed in the most cited publications, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Compressive strength, Waste management and Curing (chemistry).
Advances in Civil Engineering Materials tackles a plethora of topics, such as Composite material, Compressive strength, Cement, Asphalt and Ultimate tensile strength. Void (composites), Silica fume, Shrinkage, Viscosity and Filler (materials) are some of the facets of Composite material tackled in it. It explores issues in Compressive strength which can be linked to other research areas like Fly ash, Cementitious, Aggregate (composite) and Carboxymethyl cellulose.
Advances in Civil Engineering Materials focuses on Cement but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Pixel and Grayscale. Topics in Asphalt explored in Advances in Civil Engineering Materials were investigated in conjunction with research in Moisture, Cracking, Conditioning and Stress (mechanics). Issues in Ultimate tensile strength were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Hardness, Absorption of water, Slag (welding), Electrical resistivity and conductivity and Compression (physics).
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Advances in Civil Engineering Materials (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Advances in Civil Engineering Materials (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 16.67% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 30.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 10.00% of all publications and 50.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
