“…Bibliometrics originated from library and information science [ 1 ]. A bibliographic analysis is mainly applied to characterize the structure and research trends of a specific field or journal by utilizing a quantitative methodology [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]. Additionally, it is a comprehensive visual analysis method augmented with network topology that could detect the influential authors, institutions, and countries in a specific research domain [ 5 ] and demonstrate a journal’s influence and productivity [ 1 ].…”

This paper presents a bibliometric overview of the publications in the principal international journal Process Safety and Environmental Protection (PSEP) from 1990 to 2020 retrieved in the Web of Science (WoS) database to explore the evolution in safety and environmental engineering design and practice, as well as experimental or theoretical innovative research. Therefore, based on the WoS database and the visualization of similarities (VOS) viewer software, the bibliometric analysis and scientometric mapping of the literature have been performed from the perspectives of document types, publication and citation distribution over time, leading authors, countries (regions), institutions, the corresponding collaboration networks, most cited publications and references, focused research fields and topics, research trend evolution over time, etc. The paper provides a comprehensive and quantitative overview and significant picture representation for the journal’s leading and evolutionary trends by employing specific aforementioned bibliometric analysis factors. In addition, by reviewing the evolutionary trends of the journal and the proposed investigated factors, such as the influential works, main research topics, and the research frontiers, this paper reveals the scientific literature production’s main research objectives and directions that could be addressed and explored in future studies.

“…The study of tools for the formation of strategies for the development of technological innovations has led to a revision of methods of technological forecasting, that can be useful for bringing a new perspective to explain and generalize properties of the evolution of technology and predict which innovations are likely to evolve rapidly in society [22]. The tasks of modern technological forecasting are strategic foresight, sustainability, technology transfer, entrepreneurship, and absorptive capacity can be explored further [23].…”

The current concept of open innovation corresponds to the R&D products transfer model -"role changes". One of the fundamental provisions of the model is that R&D products are considered for commercialization not only at the final stage of technological readiness, but at any of them. In today's changing market environment, special attention is paid to the transfer and commercialization of R&D products at the early stages of readiness, but this process is characterized by significant problems from the point of view of technological forecasting. To solve the problems, the article substantiates the method of technological forecasting of market behaviour of R&D products at the early stages of technological readiness, which is based on taking into account the strengths and weaknesses, development factors and limiting factors of R&D product. The method allows you to predict indicators of product behaviour relative to the market where its commercialization is planned. As a component of the above method and in order to increase the level of reliability of calculations and validity of results, a method for determining the correction factor of indicators of market behaviour of R&D product has been developed. The method was developed on the basis of fuzzy set theory algorithms using the fuzzy logic toolbox (MATLAB), which made it possible to integrate a set of different types of forecast data on the market behaviour of an R&D product, taking into account the relationships and interdependencies between them, into one correction factor. This coefficient contains the characteristics of signs of the impact of R&D product on the market (in particular, market effects, types of market changes) and the impact of market effects on R&D product (effects generated by R&D products, organizational and technological changes in R&D products). To justify the correction factor, a knowledge base of responses from subject area experts has been formed. In order to further select a commercialization strategy for R&D product, a system with normative indicators has been developed that interpret the following types of strategies: zero-level commercialization of R&D product; first-level commercialization of R&D product; commercialization of the second level of R&D product. The author's method of technological forecasting of market behaviour of R&D products and choosing a commercialization strategy for a product is universal, can be applied to R&D product of any type of economic activity, transfer method, etc. Testing of the method on the example of a number of R&D products presented by the developers of the Lviv Polytechnic National University (Lviv, Ukraine) showed the validity of the author's method and its relevance in modern conditions of market singularity.

“…In comparison, the IF measures the impact of all the articles published in a particular journal, i.e. the average number of articles published in the past two and five years cited in the present year (Singh et al, 2020). Therefore, the impact factor depends, directly, on the size of the field…”

“…Aiming to understand the evolution of a specific journal over time, Singh et al(2020) conducted a bibliometric study of the Technological Forecasting and Social Change (TF&SC) journal, considering 48 years of trajectory and a total of 4.248 articles. This study applied a systematic view that considered metrics and parameters to identify patterns over time, the main researchers involved, research themes and shifts, and also the most prominent institutions and countries in particular areas of research (Singh et al, 2020).…”

“…In summary, Singh et al (2020) navigate over the elements which have influenced the journal, considering the total amount of publications, the most recurrent keywords, the evolution of the journal's general structure, central subjects, and the most prominent articles. Besides that, Singh et al (2020) bring to the table a co-citations analysis made with those journals that approach subjects and research interests similar to TF&SC's (a co-citation occurs when two journals receive a citation from a third source).…”
