Research areas of the most cited articles at Geo-Strata —Geo Institute of ASCE:

The journal publications focus largely on the fields of Geotechnical engineering, Civil engineering, Risk management, Levee and Forensic engineering. The studies on Geotechnical engineering discussed at the published papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Expansive clay and Soil science. The published articles focus on Civil engineering but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Heat exchanger and Energy (signal processing).

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • World War II
  • Law
  • Mechanical engineering

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Editorial board, Geotechnical engineering, Construction engineering, Engineering ethics and Civil engineering. The research on Geotechnical engineering featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Moisture, Frost and Asphalt. The concepts on Construction engineering presented in Geo-Strata —Geo Institute of ASCE can also apply to other research fields, including Soil mechanics and Computer Applications.

Research in Mindset and the interrelating topic of Engineering profession were among the subjects of interest in the Engineering ethics studies discussed in Geo-Strata —Geo Institute of ASCE. The journal features Civil engineering research that overlaps with concepts in Bulkhead (partition). The work on Geotechnical investigation tackled in it brings together disciplines like Project manager, Range (statistics), Finite element method and Process (engineering).

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • A Brief History of Jet Grouting in the Last 50 Years: The Story of Its Evolution (0 citations)
  • Moving Down the Road of Progress: Geosynthetics Subdue Failures on Expansive Clays and Frost-susceptible Soils (0 citations)
  • Beyond the Water's Edge: Geotechnics in the Wet (0 citations)

Papers citation over time

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 Geo-Strata —Geo Institute of ASCE (based on the number of publications) are:

  • John P. Bachner (40 papers) absent at the last edition,

The experience to innovation index

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:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
