Authors : Nidhisha P K & Dr. R Sarangapani
Abstract – Based on the Web of Science database, the present paper portrays the co-authorship and pattern of collaboration of 19990 publications of ICAR Deemed Universities during 1989-2020 (32 years). The study focuses on axes like the impact of highly productive authors based on various indices, authorship patterns, different collaborative measures, and most productive research area and trend topics and also visualizes the Co-authorship network of authors and countries using VOS Viewer. Bibliometrix R packages, Bibecxel and MS Excel are used to analyze the retrieved dataset. Based on the citation metrics, Singh A K is the author with more impact. Three authorship pattern is dominating and the collaborative measures calculated as 0.98 for Degree of Collaboration, 0.669 for Collaborative co-efficient and 0.671 for Modified Collaborative Coefficient. Agriculture, Veterinary Sciences and Plant Sciences are the most active research areas. The USA is the most collaborative country and the Indian Journal of Animal Sciences is the most productive journal.
Keywords – Co-authorship, Collaborative Measures, Citation Metrics, ICAR Deemed University, VOS Viewer, Web of Science.
