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
Hysteresis modeling and its application to soft magnetic materials
No full textThe main aspects of hysteresis in magnetic materials are reviewed, and some theoretical methods for their description are discussed. Particular emphasis is given to Preisach-type models of hysteresis, which yield a unified treatment of rate-independent phenomena, eddy-current dissipation and thermal relaxation. Expressions for the free energy and the entropy production are given, which provide a proper general basis for the interpretation of magnetization curves, losses, thermal relaxation. In particular, they permit one to clarify the nature of the states of minimum Gibbs energy and their relationship to the anhysteretic magnetization curve. Lines of possible development, concerning in particular the connection between microstructural and magnetic properties, are indicated
