Which countries lead Mechanical Engineering Research and Applications research?
By volume, Poland and China publish the most (103 and 56 works in 2022-now).
How concentrated that is
The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.

Universities only. The score blends excellence (40%), size (30%), specialisation (10%), growth (10%), international reach (10%), 2022-now; growth compares 2018-21 with 2022-25 and counts up to +20%, since a jump from a small base is mostly noise.
Every institution in Mechanical Engineering Research and Applications, country by countryIs Mechanical Engineering Research and Applications research growing?
Output in 2022-2025 was 38% lower than in 2018-2021, peaking in 2014.
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 Mechanical Engineering Research and Applications as a percentage of every work published that year, 0.0021% in 2024.
Fractional works of Mechanical Engineering Research and Applications 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.
Which topics inside it are moving
Growth and decline on one axis around a shared zero. Two lists side by side hide the thing that matters: whether the growth dwarfs the decline, or the other way round.
