Research areas of the most cited articles at World Journal of Engineering:

The journal articles investigate areas of study like Composite material, Ultimate tensile strength, Scanning electron microscope, Indentation hardness and Composite number. The published articles encompass presentations on Composite material, specifically Compaction, Porosity, Nanocomposite, Compressive strength and Cement. The published papers focus on Composite number but sometimes tackle the closely related topic of Titanium carbide which is concerned with Machining and Surface roughness.

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

  • Composite material
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Mechanical engineering

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The aim of the journal is to expand the discussion of research in Composite material, Mechanics, Metallurgy, Composite number and Artificial intelligence. Composite material, which encompasses Ultimate tensile strength, Glass fiber, Abrasive and Microstructure, is the main subject of the journal. Mechanics research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Magnetic field and Thermal radiation.

The journal connects the study in Metallurgy with the closely related area of Scientific method. The research on Artificial intelligence tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Machine learning and Pattern recognition.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Detection of COVID-19 cases through X-ray images using hybrid deep neural network (9 citations)
  • Predicting future diseases based on existing health status using link prediction (7 citations)
  • Influence of h-BN fillers on mechanical and tribological properties of PP/PA6 blend (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 World Journal of Engineering (based on the number of publications) are:

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, 97.37% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 60.00% 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 40.00% 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.
