Abstract
Objective. The study is aimed at increasing the publishing activity and better presentation of scientific results of Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding by expanding scientific publications in open access logs. Chronological frameworks of the studied scientific articles – 2017–2021. Methods. In order to obtain relevant empirical data, the authors of the research analyzed publications of the Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding scientists in open access logs using products and services of scientometric database Scopus. The algorithm of "step-by-step" actions in the Scopus database was considered in relation to: the determination of the most relevant topics; formation of the circles for the most cited publications; determining the representation level of publications made by the University scientists in the Scopus database on the topic of the study. Results. During the study, the authors showed that complete and objective evaluation in the effectiveness of scientific activity of the institution is possible only with the analysis of open resources of scientific information; the percentage of publications in the open access of Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding authors-scientists is growing: in five years, the number of scientific articles of open access has increased twice; the most popular publication model is GoldAPC; there are the most cited publications in foreign editions that relate to the first and second quartile. Conclusions. The authors firstly conducted a bibliometric study of scientists’ publications in open access journals as a tool for raising the publishing activity of the university on the basis of products and services of the Scopus scientometric database. The research materials can be used to further increase of publishing activity both for individual scientists and institutions as a whole.
Highlights
Bibliometric studies of scientific activity allow you to identify ways of scientific growth and promising directions, to determine the place and potential of scientific collectives, to conduct information search for non-standard and non-traditional methods of science development and innovation
Open access to scientific publications as it is defined in the Berlin Declaration (MaxPlanck-Gesellschaft, 2003), improves the pace and effectiveness of research, as well as increases the authors' reputation, and the potential impact of their work
From the 162 documents of the Open Access (OA), presented in the institution’s profile in the Scopus database, 152, which are 94%, were indexed in the last five years. These 152 documents are 41% of the total number of indexed publications over 2017-2021; the GoldAPC model is the most popular among all publications published in OA by the University authors-scientists
Summary
Bibliometric studies of scientific activity allow you to identify ways of scientific growth and promising directions, to determine the place and potential of scientific collectives, to conduct information search for non-standard and non-traditional methods of science development and innovation. Open access to scientific publications as it is defined in the Berlin Declaration (MaxPlanck-Gesellschaft, 2003), improves the pace and effectiveness of research, as well as increases the authors' reputation, and the potential impact of their work. This eliminates structural and geographical barriers that impede free circulation of knowledge that contributes to enhancing cooperation, strengthening scientific quality and capacity
