The concepts of Mathematical optimization, Operations research, Transport engineering, Mathematical model and Microeconomics are tackled in the journal. The journal focuses on Mathematical optimization but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Network planning and design and Path (graph theory). It connects research in Operations research with the related topic of Flow network.
The main emphasis of the journal is the subject of Transport engineering, focusing on Public transport. More specifically, the research on Microeconomics in Networks and Spatial Economics is related to Profit (economics).
The journal articles investigate areas of study like Mathematical optimization, Operations research, Mathematical model, Transport engineering and Simulation. The journal articles explore topics in Mathematical optimization which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Network planning and design and Scale (descriptive set theory). The most cited papers explore research in Location model and overlapping concepts in Flow (mathematics) to expand the discourse in Mathematical model.
The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Operations research, Process (engineering), Mathematical optimization, Resilience (network) and Production (economics). Concepts in Flow network, as well as related topics in Inventory level, Control (management) and Discount points, are covered in the Operations research research presented in Networks and Spatial Economics. The work on Process (engineering) tackled in Networks and Spatial Economics brings together disciplines like Mode choice, Preference (economics), Key (cryptography) and Pareto principle.
The journal addresses concerns in Mathematical optimization which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Node (networking) and Headway. While Resilience (network) is the focus of Networks and Spatial Economics, it also provided insights into the studies of Environmental economics, Corporate governance and Interdependent networks. In addition to Production (economics) research, it aims to explore topics under Mode (statistics), Econometrics, Willingness to pay, Function (mathematics) and Extreme value theory.
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 Networks and Spatial Economics (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 Networks and Spatial Economics (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, 9.30% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 12.82% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.26% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.95% of all publications and 58.97% 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.
