Future perspectives of sustainable manufacturing and applications based on research databases

摘要: Recent legislation and initiatives have precipitated a considerable shift toward sustainable development. Accordingly, studies into green manufacturing applications been conducted by numerous researchers. In this review, future perspectives of are evaluated analyzed based on research databases. More specifically, the current status historical trajectory selected areas using data from Web Science library Journal Citation Reports (JCR). State-of-the-art is presented, related journals discussed according to area. Selected subjects assessed in terms H-indices number published articles, evaluate attention paid to, importance of, each subject. To further discussion perspectives, trajectories explored. For example, technologies described greener machine tool review article were classified technology hierarchy, their changes evaluated. matched categorical hierarchies, development stages four-stage model (early, emerging, developed, saturated stages). The results showed that dramatically emerged last decade. insights provided through suggestion evaluation methods provision examples.
