Overview

Top Research Topics at International Journal of Biomathematics?

The concepts of Applied mathematics, Stability (probability), Control theory, Mathematical analysis and Epidemic model are tackled in International Journal of Biomathematics. While it focused on Applied mathematics, it was also able to explore topics like Dynamics (mechanics), Predation, Nonlinear system, Stability theory and Mathematical optimization. The Predation study featured falls within the larger field of Ecology.

Mathematical optimization research presented is mostly focused on the subject of Optimal control. While Stability (probability) is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Mathematical economics, Statistical physics and Bifurcation. International Journal of Biomathematics facilitated presentations on Control theory research, particularly Hopf bifurcation and Lyapunov function.

The Hopf bifurcation works, particularly on Center manifold are tackled in International Journal of Biomathematics. It focuses on Epidemic model as well as the interrelated topic of Basic reproduction number. The Basic reproduction number study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Virology.

  • Applied mathematics (22.65%)
  • Stability (probability) (16.84%)
  • Control theory (14.13%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

Research areas of the most cited articles at International Journal of Biomathematics:

The journal papers primarily tackle Mechanics, Control theory, Applied mathematics, Stability (probability) and Boundary value problem. The most cited articles facilitate discussions on Applied mathematics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Epidemic model, Exponential stability, Nonlinear system, Computer simulation and Chebyshev collocation method. The published papers address concerns in Stability (probability) which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Hopf bifurcation, CTL*, Basic reproduction number and Virology.

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

  • Statistics
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Ecology

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal generally zeroes in on subjects such as Applied mathematics, Epidemic model, Virology, Predation and Statistical physics. Some problems in Applied mathematics that were presented in International Journal of Biomathematics overlapped with concepts under Nonlinear system, Bifurcation, Stability (probability), Class (set theory) and White noise. The Nonlinear system works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Differential (mathematics), Work (thermodynamics) and Mathematical analysis.

The studies in Epidemic model featured incorporate elements of Demography, Markovian switching and Basic reproduction number. The study of Dynamics (mechanics) and how it intertwines with concepts under Biological system were explored in the presented Predation research. The overlapping concepts between Extinction and Stationary distribution are the key highlights of Statistical physics study.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Comparison between two tritrophic food chain models with multiple delays and anti-predation effect (10 citations)
  • Pattern dynamics of a reaction-diffusion predator-prey system with both refuge and harvesting (8 citations)
  • A co-infection model for HPV and syphilis with optimal control and cost-effectiveness analysis (5 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 International Journal of Biomathematics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Tasawar Hayat (14 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 6.67% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 17.35% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.16% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.33% of all publications and 58.16% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

Returning Institution Index

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.

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.
