2018—2020年全球安全科学研究态势

Research status of safety science from 2018 to 2020

为了解2018—2020年全球安全科学技术的研究态势,在《安全科学学术地图》(综合卷)的研究基础上,应用科学计量与知识图谱的方法,对来自Web of Science数据库23种国际安全综合期刊的9722篇论文,从论文产出的时间趋势、国家/地区、机构的空间态势和论文产出的主题分布方面进行了分析。结果表明,2018—2020年全球安全科学的产出呈现显著的线性增长趋势。论文主要源自五大安全科学期刊,分别为《安全科学》《国际减灾与风险》《可靠性工程与系统安全》《过程安全与环境保护》及《事故分析与预防》,其论文数占到了总论文数的59.93%。在国家/地区分布上,2018—2020年我国论文总量已经位居世界第一,并与核心的国家或地区建立了广泛的合作关系。此外,美国、英国和澳大利亚也一直表现突出,是安全论文的核心产出国。在机构层面上,荷兰代尔夫特理工大学作为国际知名安全研究机构,论文产出总量为全球第一。此外,美国德州农工大学、中国矿业大学、清华大学及挪威科技大学等也表现突出。在2018—2020年,我国有大量机构位于高产机构的行列,中国矿业大学、清华大学、中国科学院、北京航空航天大学及南京工业大学等安全相关研究在国际论文的产出上表现活跃。在主题层面上,国际安全科学研究主题群相对稳定,主要分布在#1职业安全和灾害风险、#2工业过程安全、#3系统安全与可靠性及#4交通安全四大领域,并出现了以新冠病毒安全与风险、台风、长时记忆、卷积神经网络、深度学习及自动驾驶为代表的安全研究的新问题与新方法。

To understand the research status of international safety science in the past three years,and provide valuable information for promoting Chinese safety science and technology research,based on the former research report of Academic Map of Safety and Security Science(comprehensive volume),9722 research articles and reviews were collected from 23 international safety-related journals in the Web of Science core collections.The annual trends of the publications output,geographic distribution in different countries/regions,and the structure of the topics were conducted with the bibliometric and knowledge mapping methods.The yearly output of the safety papers increased with a linear trend in the past three years,showing an increase of safety-related research around the world.Papers of safety research are mainly published in Safety Science,International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction,Reliability Engineering&System Safety,Process Safety and Environmental Protection,and Accident Analysis and Prevention,and these highly productive sources account for 59.9%of the 9722 papers.Geospatial of these papers shows that safety research has a wide distribution around the world.And among these countries/regions,China is ranked in the first place in terms of the total number of papers,and also with diverse collaboration with the core countries/regions in the international safety research.Among these countries/regions USA,UK and Australia also have a good performance in safety research outputs.In the institutions’dimension,Delft University of Technology is the most productive institution,followed by Texas A&M Univ,China Univ Min&Technol,Tsinghua Univ,Norwegian Univ Sci&Technol,Chinese Acad Sci and Beihang Univ.The research topics of safety research are mainly in four groups,#1 safety,risk and disasters management;#2 process safety research;#3 system safety and reliability and#4 transportation safety.And among these typical terms,COVID-19 safety and risk,typhoon,long short-term memory,convolutional neural network,deep learning,and automated driving are new emerging questions and methods in safety research.
