The primary areas of discussion in Aerospace Science and Technology are Mechanics, Control theory, Aerodynamics, Structural engineering and Aerospace engineering. The journal encompasses presentations on Mechanics, specifically Vortex, Mach number, Turbulence, Flow (psychology) and Supersonic speed. The studies on Control theory discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Control engineering and Spacecraft.
Topics in Aerodynamics explored in Aerospace Science and Technology were investigated in conjunction with research in Airfoil, Computational fluid dynamics, Wind tunnel and Wing. Aerospace Science and Technology investigates Structural engineering research which frequently intersects with Vibration.
The main points discussed in the most cited publications deal with Control theory, Mechanics, Aerodynamics, Structural engineering and Control engineering. Most of the Control theory studies addressed in the published papers also intersect with Spacecraft. Issues in Aerodynamics were discussed in the most cited publications, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Airfoil, Computational fluid dynamics and Wing.
Aerospace Science and Technology mainly deals with areas of study such as Mechanics, Control theory, Aerodynamics, Flow (psychology) and Mach number. Mechanics and Combustor are closely related fields of research discussed in the journal. The Control theory study featured in Aerospace Science and Technology draws connections with the study of Spacecraft.
The research on Aerodynamics tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Computational fluid dynamics and Rotor (electric). Research on Supersonic speed addressed in Aerospace Science and Technology frequently intersections with the field of Shock wave. Aerospace Science and Technology focuses on Aeroelasticity research which is adjacent to topics in Flutter.
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 Aerospace Science and Technology (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 Aerospace Science and Technology (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, 4.64% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 50.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.14% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.95% of all publications and 28.91% 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.
