BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF ENGINEERING RESEARCH USING VOSVIEWER INDEXED BY GOOGLE SCHOLAR

Engineering is a discipline that can help in solving human problems in their daily lives. Currently, a lot of engineering research has been done. The purpose of this research is to perform bibliometric analysis of bibliographic data of engineering research articles indexed by google scholar by combining analysis in terms of the distribution of bibliometric maps using VOSviewer software. The research data was obtained from the Google Scholar database which was obtained through the Publish or Perish references manager application. The data filtering process is carried out based on the keyword "engineering" contained in the topic, title, keyword, and abstract areas. The search was conducted for articles published in the 2017-2021 range. From the search results obtained 1000 relevant articles. The results show that engineering research has decreased over the last 5 years, namely in 2017 amounting to 396 to 14 articles in 2021. Research related to engineering is the most widely researched term engineering itself. Meanwhile, the least is in terms of the environment. The research that has the highest up-to-date on engineering keywords is computer science. Each data and research result are obtained based on the results of mapping analysis using VOSviewer. This review is certainly expected to provide a point of reference and consideration in seeking further research fields, especially research related to engineering.
