Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
Simulation of multipass welding with simultaneous computation of material properties
Full text linkMultipass butt welding of two 0.2 m thick steel plates has been investigated. The objective is to calculate residual stresses and compare them with measured residual stresses. The material properties depend on temperature and temperature history. This dependency is accounted for by computing the microstructure evolution and using this information for computing material properties. This is done by assigning temperature dependent material properties to each phase and applying mixture rules to predict macro material properties. Two different materials have been used for the microstructure calculation, one for the base material and one for the filler materialValiderad; 2001; 20060924 (cira)</p
Additive manufacturing and high performance applications
No full textThe requirement on life and robustness for aero-engine components poses obstacles
to additive manufacturing. It is expected that increasing knowledge about the process and thereby
its development together with adaption of existing alloys may improve this state. Simulations can
contribute to understanding as well as be used in the design of process and components in order to
reduce residual deformations and stresses as well as defects. Models for the latter are still not well
established. The paper describes various existing approaches and also on-going developments at
Luleå University of Technology that enable better descriptions in the near weld region for crack
initiation.Published versio
Temperature and plastic strain dependent Chaboche model for 316 L used in simulation of cold pilgering
No full textCold pilgering is a complex forming process used to produce seamless tubes, posing significant challenges in material modeling due to its non-proportional loading history and extensive accumulated plastic strain. In this study, a temperature- and plastic strain-dependent Chaboche model for 316 L stainless steel was developed and calibrated. To simulate the complex loading conditions, unique alternating compression-compression tests were conducted, and the model parameters were optimized accordingly. The calibrated model was integrated into a thermo-mechanical finite element simulation of the cold pilgering process, resulting in improved accuracy in predicting stress-strain responses and yield stress evolution. Close agreement with experimental tensile tests of the final tube was demonstrated, illustrating the model’s capability to predict hardening behavior during cold pilgering. Valuable insights and a practical modeling approach for enhancing the simulation and optimization of cold pilgering processes are provided by this work.Validerad;2025;Nivå 2;2025-01-01 (hanlid);Funder: Swedish Steel Industry Graduate School; Alleima; Jernkontoret; Sandviken kommun;Full text license: CC BY 4.0;This article has previously appeared as a manuscript in a thesis.</p
