理论研究与应用研究的协同进化--以石墨烯研究为例
Coevolution of theoretical and applied research: a case study of graphene research by temporal and geographic analysis
摘要:
作为科学学研究的一部分,科学学科的演化近年来引起了人们的广泛关注。这种学科层次的分析不仅能提供对某一特定领域的见解,而且还能揭示科学事业的一般原理。在本文中,我们专注于石墨烯的研究,一个快速增长的领域涵盖理论和应用研究。利用共聚类方法,我们将石墨烯文献分为两组,并确认一组是关于理论研究(T),另一组对应于应用研究(A)。我们分析了T/A的比例,发现2007年后应用型研究越来越受欢迎。地理分析表明,各国在T/A方面有不同的偏好,对研究趋势的反应也不同。分析了两个群体之间的相互作用,结果表明,T对T的依赖程度很高,而A对A的依赖程度很高,但T的情况非常稳定,而A的情况发生了显著变化。没有发现地理差异的相互作用动力学。我们的研究结果给出了石墨烯研究进展的全面图景,也提供了一个能够分析其他学科的一般框架。
英文摘要:
As a part of science of science (SciSci) research, the evolution of scientific disciplines has been attracting a great deal of attention recently. This kind of discipline level analysis not only give insights of one particular field but also shed light on general principles of scientific enterprise. In this paper we focus on graphene research, a fast growing field covers both theoretical and applied study. Using co-clustering method, we split graphene literature into two groups and confirm that one group is about theoretical research (T) and another corresponds to applied research (A). We analyze the proportion of T/A and found applied research becomes more and more popular after 2007. Geographical analysis demonstrated that countries have different preference in terms of T/A and they reacted differently to research trend. The interaction between two groups has been analyzed and shows that T extremely relies on T and A heavily relies on A, however the situation is very stable for T but changed markedly for A. No geographic difference is found for the interaction dynamics. Our results give a comprehensive picture of graphene research evolution and also provide a general framework which is able to analyze other disciplines.
