The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Geotechnical engineering, Rock mass classification, Structural engineering, Excavation and Composite material. The research on Geotechnical engineering tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Soil water, Compressive strength and Stress (mechanics). The study on Compressive strength presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Ultimate tensile strength.
The main emphasis of Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering is the subject of Rock mass classification, focusing on Geological Strength Index. The Structural engineering study tackling the subject of Finite element method is the focus of the journal. It explores research in Excavation and the adjacent study of Mining engineering.
Geotechnical engineering, Rock mass classification, Structural engineering, Mining engineering and Excavation are the main subjects of interest in the published articles. The most cited papers facilitate discussions on Geotechnical engineering that incorporate concepts from other fields like Shear (geology), Compressive strength and Ultimate tensile strength. The journal papers explore issues in Rock mass classification which can be linked to other research areas like Deformation (mechanics) and Classification of discontinuities.
The objective of the journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Geotechnical engineering, Composite material, Rock mass classification, Mechanics and Compressive strength. It focuses on Geotechnical engineering but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Stress (mechanics) and Stiffness. The presented Composite material research focuses mostly on Water content and, on occasion, topics in Compaction.
Concepts in Excavation, as well as related topics in Mining engineering, are covered in the Rock mass classification research presented in Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering. Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering explores research in Pore water pressure alongside concepts in Effective stress and other areas of study in Permeability (earth sciences). Discussions in Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering are anchored in the subject of Permeability (earth sciences) and the similar topic of Fracture (geology).
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 Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering (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 Journal of rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering (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, 4.65% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 30.08% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.20% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.63% of all publications and 43.09% 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.
