Analysis of research of civil engineering innovation and its evolution in China
Taking nearly 20,000 documents from three high-level core journals in the field of civil engineering since 2000 as the data source,the bibliometric method is used to carry out relevant statistics and visualization analysis of keywords,macroscopically identify the hotspots of innovative research and evolution trends in civil engineering,and microscopically analyze the evolution characteristics of seismic performance research.The study shows that:finite element analysis is the most commonly used method,seismic performance is the most popular research hotspot,and there is cross-fertilization between the research topics;seismic performance research is expanded from tra-ditional frame structures to high-rise building seismic,structural system seismic and new seismic structures,etc..Digital design,analog simulation and intelligent monitoring have become new trends.
