Description
Summary:The purpose of this paper is to gather insights about recent progress of scientific research associated with life-cycle assessment (LCA) using bibliometric analysis. A total of 10,524 and 7726 articles were extracted from Scopus data base and web of science (WoS) data base respectively. The findings were evaluated on the basis of aspects such as the distribution of the journal articles obtained on the basis of language, total publication, discipline wise, journal wise, and citation wise in both databases over the years. Almost all of the articles are either in the field of engineering and environmental science. In addition, lists are provided of the most active writers, organizations and countries. The USA is the top nation in this area of research, however among all other institutes worldwide, the Technical University of Denmark has the maximum number of articles. Author keyword network and document co-citation network is visualized using VOS viewer. Finally, a lists of top 50 highly influential papers were generated using WoS and Scopus databases. Researchers would be able to draw measured judgments for their future research work by referring this study.
