As acculturation research has become more interdisciplinary and dynamic over the last 20 years, it is necessary to explore its emerging trends. We collected 10,039 research articles on acculturation research from 2000 to 2020 from the Web of Science (WoS) database and utilized the CiteSpace tool to visualize emerging trends. During the data analysis, we extracted noun phrases from the abstracts of the retrieved articles to identify clusters, and the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) algorithm was used to generate cluster labels in the co-citation network. Based on the size of the clusters, the five largest clusters were chosen and analyzed: “Asian cultural value,” “Suicide attempt,” “Unhealthy behavior,” “Host country identification,” and “Emerging adulthood”. These findings may help researchers and scholars gain useful insight and explore topics related to the research trends in acculturation.

The article proposes an approach to analyzing and predicting the thematic evolution of research by identifying an upward trend in keywords. Statistical analysis of the vocabulary of publications allows us to trace the depth of penetration of new ideas and methods, which can be set by the frequency of occurrence of words encoding whole concepts. The article presents a developed method for analyzing research trends and an article ranking algorithm based on the structure of a direct citation network. Data for the study was extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection, 6696 publications were collected for the experiment over the period 2005—2016 in the field of artificial intelligence. To evaluate the proposed method, 3211 publications were collected from 2017 to 2019. As a result, the method was evaluated by checking the presence of predicted keywords in the set of the most frequent terms for the period 2017—2019 and provided an accuracy of 73.33 %.

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) pollution has garnered significant interest as a serious environmental problem. To date, a large amount of research has been published on this topic. We analyzed the related studies to assess the global developments of MPs regarding the evolution, research trends, and hotspots by bibliometric. A total of 2,872 bibliographic records were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, and CiteSpace 5.4 was used for bibliometrics. The results visually displayed the contributing countries, institutions, authors, keywords, and potential research directions in the MPs fields. The scientific developments in this field began in 2004 and have accelerated considerably since 2012. China and the USA are the leading countries in MPs research. The research on MPs is multidisciplinary and involves Ecology, Chemistry, Molecular Biology, Environmental Science, and Oceanography. Among these, Oceanography was the most connected with MPs and was the most well-developed. Overall, we mapped the development of MPs research and attempted a comprehensive discussion and understanding of scientific advances, as well as the progress made.

In this paper, bibliometric analysis is conducted on eco-innovation and internationalisation, since in the scientific literature, both research fields have been considered as being interrelated. Although the adoption of eco-innovation and internationalisation are risky processes, they reduce competitive risk and increase performance in a highly competitive business environment. The main objective of this study is to identify current research trends on the interrelationships of eco-innovations and internationalisation as well as the main areas of knowledge and to provide a general overview of research streams that can be classified using by papers, authors and journals found in the Web of Science database. In total, 1677 publications published between 1991 and 2020 related to eco-innovations and internationalisation were taken into consideration. For the visualisation of bibliographic material, VOSviewer software was used. These findings provide valuable insights by revealing the trends and highlighting the possible research streams for future investigations in the field of eco-innovations and internationalisation research.

Traditionally, publication citation networks are regarded as acyclic, that is, no loops in the network as an earlier published article cannot cite a later published article. However, due to the accessibility of pre-print versions of articles, there might be some loops in a publication citation network. This article presents a descriptive statistic on loops in publication citation networks of computer science and physics by employing a network-based indicator, namely, strongly connected component (SCC). By employing computer science and physics disciplines publications from the Web of Science database as examples, this article examines the count of loops, how the count changes over time and how the count relates to the published year difference between publications within the loop in the citation network. Some common structural patterns are also extracted and analysed; we observe that the two disciplines share the most frequent patterns though there exist some minor differences. Moreover, we find that self-citations in terms of authors, authors’ institutions and journals contribute to the formation of loops in publication citation networks.

Green finance issues have triggered the increasing research enthusiasm of researchers. With the rapid growing of publications related to green finance, it is difficult for readers to deeply understand the intellectual structure, research hotspots, and trends. In addition, the dynamic nature of a research front poses challenges for the scientists, research policymakers, and many others to keep up with the rapid advances of the state of the art in science. Therefore, the authors conducted a bibliometric analysis from the Web of Science over the period of 1998–2017. Co-word analysis and co-citation analysis are employed to explore institution distribution, journal co-citation analysis, author co-citation analysis, document co-citation analysis, and keyword co-word analysis, particularly in high frequency items, intellectual turning points, burst points, and emerging trends. The results can be useful for institutions and researchers worldwide to understand the panorama of green finance research, find the potential research gaps, and focus on the future research trends.

A method of scientometrics analysis was adopted in this study to objectively visualize the research status quo, track the emerging trends and understand the intellectual structure of affordance research in the field of interaction design with 726 documents published in the ISI Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database from 1995-2020. The results identified that annual trends of the papers will continue to grow. USA plays a significant role and is a pioneer in the field. There is no leading institution or author with high output or high influence. The study has formed 4 hot research topic: Theoretical study, Perception-level study, Behaviour-level study and Experience-level study. According to the references co-citation network, we can know that affordance research in the field of interaction design has produced a number of classic literature.

This paper aims to establish a ranking of the 50 most cited research articles pertaining to ankle surgery in the field of orthopaedics. In addition, the demographic features such as the date of publications, location of primary author and country of the publisher were all analysed. Studies similar to these have been completed in other subspecialties, however we were not able to find studies relevant to ankle surgery. The Web of Science Cor Collection Database was utilised to identify the target articles. The most cited article was cited 394 times and the least was cited 120 times, and the majority of articles were published in the United States of America. This research will benefit the scientific community in identifying popular research topics, identifying lacking fields and identifying key hubs in the field of ankle surgery.
