Descargas
Este estudio presenta un análisis bibliométrico y basado en redes de las revistas de ingeniería publicadas en América Latina e indexadas simultáneamente en SciELO y Scopus. El objetivo es caracterizar su alcance disciplinar, su especialización temática y sus patrones de colaboración científica. A través de un mapa de correlación entre áreas temáticas de Scopus y indicadores de desempeño, se identifican los principales actores, destacando el papel de instituciones líderes y la visibilidad internacional de las revistas más reconocidas. El análisis de palabras clave del autor permite identificar tendencias temáticas, consistencia terminológica y una transición hacia áreas de alto impacto, como las tecnologías digitales, la inteligencia artificial y la sostenibilidad. Las relaciones entre revistas se exploran mediante la correlación de palabras clave, mientras que las redes de citación, co-citación y acoplamiento bibliográfico evidencian vínculos intelectuales. Un análisis de coocurrencia permite identificar temas dominantes y clústeres emergentes en sostenibilidad, innovación tecnológica, salud pública, educación y áreas fundamentales como materiales, optimización y análisis de riesgos. Los hallazgos ofrecen una perspectiva multidimensional sobre las revistas latinoamericanas de ingeniería y su integración en el panorama académico global, además de brindar orientaciones prácticas para autores, editores y responsables de políticas comprometidos con el fortalecimiento de la investigación en ingeniería en la región.
This study presents a bibliometric and network based analysis of engineering journals published in Latin America and indexed in both SciELO and Scopus simultaneously. It aims to characterize their disciplinary scope, thematic specialization, and scientific collaboration. Using a correlation map of Scopus subject areas and performance indicators, the study identifies key contributors, highlighting the roles of leading institutions and the global visibility of top journals. Author keywords reveal thematic trends, terminological consistency, and a shift toward high-impact areas, including digital technologies, artificial intelligence, and sustainability. Inter-journal relationships are explored through keyword correlation, while citation, co-citation, and bibliographic coupling networks highlight intellectual linkages. A co-occurrence analysis identifies dominant and emerging research themes. These include sustainability, technological innovation, public health, education, and core fields like materials, optimization, and risk analysis. The findings offer a multidimensional perspective on Latin American engineering journals and their integration into the global scholarly landscape, and provide practical insights for authors, editors, and policymakers seeking to strengthen regional engineering research.
