Bibliometric and Network Analysis of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book provides a data-driven, sweeping overview of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) research using bibliometric methods and network analysis. It based its mappings of publication patterns, top authors, institutions, countries, and leading journals; measured influence in terms of citation, co-authorship and co-citation metrics; and uncovered thematic clusters through keyword co-occurrence and topic networks. Identified key topics are material development (composites, polymers, biopolymers), process-parameter optimisation, mechanical properties and anisotropy, post-processing, applications (tooling, biomedical, aerospace), and sustainability. Network metrics and visualisations (generated using tools such as VOSviewer/Gephi) shed light on collaboration trends, upcoming hotspots, and knowledge gaps. The book finishes with strategic advice for future FDM research-standardisation, multimaterial printing, process-property modelling, and lifecycle assessment-making it a useful guidebook for researchers, policy makers, and industry players who are looking for a disciplined overview of the development of the field and its future directions.
