Geotechnique was organized to reinforce research efforts on Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Soil mechanics, Consolidation (soil) and Structural engineering. Topics in Geotechnical engineering were tackled in line with various other fields like Shear (geology) and Stiffness. The Soil water study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Water content.
The study on Soil mechanics presented in it intersects with the topics under Plasticity. The journal facilitates discussions on Consolidation (soil) that incorporate concepts from other fields like Effective stress, Compressibility and Permeability (earth sciences). The study on Structural engineering featured in the journal expounds on the topic of Finite element method in particular.
Studies on Pile discussed in the journal link to the field of Soil structure interaction.
The most cited papers investigate studies in Geotechnical engineering, Soil mechanics, Soil water, Consolidation (soil) and Pore water pressure. While Geotechnical engineering is the focus of the published articles, it also provides insights into the studies of Shear (geology), Stiffness and Plasticity. The featured Soil mechanics studies in the journal articles mainly concentrate on Deformation (mechanics) but also cover areas of interest in Stress (mechanics).
The topics of Geotechnical engineering, Composite material, Soil structure interaction, Soil water and Bearing capacity are the focal point of discussions in Geotechnique. The journal addresses concerns in Geotechnical engineering which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Centrifuge and Partial saturation. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Composite material, it also covered topics in Compressibility and Anisotropy.
The presented Soil water research focuses mostly on Landslide and, on occasion, topics in Debris flow. The Bearing capacity works, particularly on Shallow foundation are tackled in it. The journal links adjacent topics like Stiffness with Cyclic loading.
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 Geotechnique (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 Geotechnique (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, 5.81% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 34.93% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 17.12% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.55% of all publications and 27.40% 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.
