The scientific interests tackled in Lubrication Science are Lubricant, Lubrication, Tribology, Metallurgy and Composite material. Lubrication Science focused on Lubricant research conducted under the discipline of Organic chemistry. As a part of Lubrication Science, discussions in Organic chemistry involve topics like Alkyl and Antioxidant.
The journal focuses on Lubrication but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Surface roughness, Surface finish, Mechanics and Bearing (mechanical). Lubrication Science explores topics in Mechanics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Geotechnical engineering, Engineering drawing and Fluid bearing. Topics in Tribology were tackled in line with various other fields like Chemical engineering, Grease and Scanning electron microscope.
While Chemical engineering is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Ionic liquid and Rubbing. Research on Metallurgy addressed in Lubrication Science frequently intersections with the field of Coating. The study on Composite material presented in the journal intersects with subjects under the field of Forensic engineering.
The published articles focus on Lubricant, Lubrication, Organic chemistry, Metallurgy and Tribology. Nanoparticle, Base oil and Dispersant are some topics wherein Lubricant research discussed in the journal papers has an impact. The published articles focus on Lubrication but sometimes tackle the closely related disciplines such as
Lubrication Science mainly tackles studies in Composite material, Lubrication, Tribology, Chemical engineering and Mechanics. The concepts on Composite material presented in Lubrication Science can also apply to other research fields, including Transient analysis, Bearing (mechanical) and Graphene. While the journal focused on Lubrication, it was also able to explore topics like Geotechnical engineering, Surface (mathematics) and Texture (crystalline).
Topics in Tribology explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Adhesion, Wetting, Grease, Nanoparticle and Polyvinylpyrrolidone. The featured Chemical engineering studies mainly concentrate on Lubricant but also cover areas of interest in Coating. The Mechanics works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Pipeline transport, Point (geometry), Wall slip and Residual deformation.
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 Lubrication Science (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 Lubrication Science (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, 2.50% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 23.08% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.13% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.08% of all publications and 48.72% 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.
