Bibliometric Analysis of Road Damage Due to High Rainfall Intensity in Mountainous Areas Using VOSviewer

Abstract

Road damage is one of the many things encountered in the world of construction. Road damage must require prompt handling, so as not to interfere with every activity and safety of road users. Therefore, road damage must require rapid handling. This research uses bibliometric analysis related to road damage in mountainous areas, capturing research data for the period 2000 to 2023. Research on road damage aims to determine the development of research from year to year. This research uses keywords to get the closest indicators related to the research topic. The relationship between keywords and research topics is significant to get accurate data on previous to current research topics. This bibliometric research was sourced from the Crossref database on November 23, 2023. This research uses the Research Information System (RIS) format to capture data using Publish or Perish software. The format is filtered again using VOSviewer software. VOSviewer aims to visualize the results of data processing that has been netted. The netting results were obtained from several dominant keywords, namely Asphalt, Pavement Material, Pavement Design, and Road Material. This research nets 993 documents out of 1000 research documents netted from 2000 to 2023. The documents netted include 1 grant, 31 standards, 10 components, 2 datasets, 3 reports, 859 journal-article, 2 journals, 49 book chapters, 30 proceedings articles, 1 posted content, 1 book, 1 other, 3 proceedings. This research was carried out to analyze the development of previous research up to the present.
