Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
FEM Numerical and Experimental Study on Dimensional Accuracy of Tubes Extruded from 6082 and 7021 Aluminium Alloys
No full textThe extrusion of hollow profiles from hard-deformable AlZnMg alloys by using porthole dies encounters great technological difficulties in practice. High extrusion force accompanies the technological process, which is caused by high deformation resistance and high friction resistance in extrusion conditions. As a result of high thermo-mechanical loads affecting the die, a significant loss of dimensional accuracy of extruded profiles can be observed. The different projects of porthole dies for the extrusion of Ø50 × 2 mm tubes from the 7021 alloy were numerically calculated and then tested in industrial conditions by using a press of 25 MN capacity equipped with a container with a diameter of 7 inches (for 7021 alloy and 6082 alloy for comparison). New extrusion die 3 with modified bridge and mandrel geometry and a special radial–convex entry to the die opening was proposed. FEM was applied to analyse the metal flow during extrusion, geometrical stability of extruded tubes and the die deflection. The photogrammetric measuring method was used to evaluate dimensional accuracy of tubes extruded in different conditions and geometrical deviations in porthole dies elements, especially the bridges and the mandrels. Research revealed a high dimensional accuracy of tubes extruded from the 6082 alloy and from the 7021 alloy by using original extrusion die 3, while much higher dimensional deviations were noted for tubes extruded from the 7021 alloy by using extrusion dies 1 and 2, particularly in relation to the circularity, centricity and wall thickness
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Effect of Aging Parameters of EN AW-7021 Aluminium Alloys on Stress Corrosion Cracking
Get PDFThe main assumption of the conducted research was the selection of appropriate heat treatment parameters to obtain the best possible resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and the highest strength properties of the extruded profiles. The work selected the temperature and time of one- and two-stage treatment of the EN AW-7021 alloy based on aging curves. Tests carried out for samples after aging at 135°C for 24 h and two-stage aging at 90°C/8 h + 135°C/8 h revealed the highest resistance to SCC. The 7021 alloy, after heat treatment at 90°C/8 h + 135°C/16 h, reached the highest tensile strength of 534MPa. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations showed slight differences in the finely dispersed nucleoids between the selected parameters of the artificial aging process
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
ICSI: Bridging the Arabic cataloguing gap between academic and industry: a case study of LISC 7021 Arabic Cataloguing course
Get PDFThe IIUM Library Classification System for Knowledge Resources on Islam (ICSI) plays a transformative role in bridging the cataloguing gap between academic training and industry practices, particularly for Arabic and Islamic collections. This article presents the integration of ICSI within the LISC 7021 (Arabic Cataloguing) course, highlighting how it equips students with the essential skills needed to address the complexities of cataloguing Arabic and Islamic materials. Despite the rich cultural and historical significance of these collections, the absence of standardized cataloguing systems poses significant challenges in both academic settings and industry. This initiative focuses on a comprehensive approach, integrating hands-on learning, case studies, and industry collaboration.
Key challenges include the scarcity of Arabic-specific metadata standards and the need for bilingual cataloguers with industry-ready expertise. Through initiatives such as industry partnerships, collaborative projects, and student-centred case studies, LISC 7021 leverages ICSI to create a dynamic learning environment that mirrors real-world demands. Success factors include aligning course objectives with industry needs, fostering student competency, and enhancing engagement through practical application.
This article also highlights notable achievements, such as the successful implementation of ICSI-driven projects and the positive feedback from both students and industry professionals. Ultimately, the integration of ICSI in LISC 7021 is a key step in advancing the field of Arabic cataloguing, preparing students to meet the demands of the evolving library and information science sector
