Engineering Structural Analysis Methods
Engineering Structural Analysis Methods is a research topic within Mechanical Engineering. Science Explorer counts 16k research works in it since 1950. 9.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on the analysis, modeling, and experimental study of bolted joints, threaded fasteners, and gasketed joints. It explores topics such as finite element analysis of tightening and loosening mechanisms, friction coefficients in torque-preloading relationships, bearing friction torque, and the effect of thread pitch on fatigue life. The papers also investigate the behavior of bolted joints under various loading conditions, the influence of lubrication on frictional characteristics, and methods to prevent self-loosening and improve anti-loosening performance.

The same series as a ribbon: one cell per year, darker for more. The line above answers how much; this answers when.
Its share of all research
Growing output can still be a shrinking share: all of science grows. This is Engineering Structural Analysis Methods as a percentage of every work published that year, 0.010% in 2024.
Fractional works of Engineering Structural Analysis Methods over all fractional works that year. How the balance of science has shifted.
How much of it reaches the world top 10%
Year by year.
Of each year's works in it, the share that reached the world's 10% most cited for their field and year. A field is the world for its own topics, so there is no other line to hold it against.
