The aim of Lubricants is to expand the discussion of research in Tribology, Composite material, Lubrication, Lubricant and Mechanics. The journal features Tribology research that overlaps with concepts in Chemical engineering. The research on Chemical engineering discussed in Lubricants draws on the closely related field of Ionic liquid.
It aims to address concerns in Composite material, specifically in the areas of Coating, Scanning electron microscope, Grease, Polymer and Microstructure. Lubrication research presented in Lubricants encompasses a variety of subjects, including Surface roughness, Surface finish, Work (thermodynamics) and Bearing (mechanical). The Bearing (mechanical) works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Structural engineering and Rotor (electric).
Topics in Lubricant explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Rheology and Viscosity. Mechanics and Finite element method are closely related fields of research discussed in it.
The most cited publications mainly deal with areas of study such as Tribology, Lubricant, Lubrication, Composite material and Metallurgy. The most cited papers with studies in Tribology featured incorporate elements of Surface finish, Characterization (materials science), Thin film, Coating and Graphene. The most cited articles facilitate discussions on Lubricant that incorporate concepts from other fields like Viscosity, Chemical engineering, Phosphate and Bearing (mechanical).
The main points discussed in the journal deals with Tribology, Composite material, Lubrication, Lubricant and Bearing (mechanical). Lubricants explores research in Tribology alongside concepts in Nanoparticle and other areas of study in Transmission electron microscopy. The research on Lubrication tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Ball (bearing), Grinding, Machining, Surface roughness and Mechanics.
Lubricants addresses concerns in Mechanics which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Eccentricity (behavior) and Contact mechanics. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Lubricant, it also covered topics in Combustion, Metallurgy, Viscosity and Chemical engineering. The close relationship between Structural engineering and Deformation (meteorology) and Turbine is one of the points of interest dissected in Bearing (mechanical) research.
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 Lubricants (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 Lubricants (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, 96.04% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 75.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 25.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% 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.
