“…The identification of emerging technologies and new knowledge fields has become essential for researchers, policy makers and industry itself (Prabhakaran, Lathabai and Changat, 2015). For this, patents and citations analysis have been used as an important data source to identify promising inventions in different technological areas (Kuhn, 2012).…”

Breno Nunes 2 Geciane Porto 3 IntroductionThe climate change caused by greenhouse gases emissions in the atmosphere has been widely discussed for years. The transport area is one of the largest contributors for this scenario accounting for 23% of total CO2 emissions. This is because 95% of the energy used in transport comes from fossil fuels (Sims et al., 2014). Globally, transport is likely to continue being a big source of pollution, particularly urban air pollution. While the mobility by car is forecast to only grow 32% by 2050 in OECD countries; it will raise by a staggering 185% in non-OECD countries (ITF, 2017). If initiatives are not taken to find and use alternative and non-polluting energy sources at a reasonable cost, this demand may further jeopardize the planet's environmental conditions (IPCC, 2014a, Creutzig et al., 2015. Numerous treaties have already been proposed at global level to establish policies that foster clean technology initiatives and mitigate environmental impacts. Paris Agreement is the most recent one (UNFCCC, 2015). New legislation is coming in place to ban the sales of new petrol and diesel vehicles in countries like Denmark, Germany, France, and United Kingdom by 2040. Burch and Gilchrist (2018) also point out the list of actions from dozens of other countries to phase-out the production of combustion vehicles as well as the incentive to adopt EVs (electric vehicles). Despite the rapid evolution in the development of EVs, technological learning for the transition to a low carbon transport system still has challenges that depend on innovations in energy storage technologies such as batteries as well as at infrastructural and policy level, i.e. better plan for electric grid infrastructure (Kittner et al., 2020).Clean energy generation through renewable sources, among them solar, wind, water or biomass is also a key step to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Hydrogen has been pointed out as an alternative (Johnston et al. 2005) however its commercial application (e.g. full cells) are still growing slowly. In particular, solar and wind power have been subject of increasing

“…3 A centralidade de autovetor captura a influência ou poder dos nós em uma rede. Uma palavra-chave com uma grande pontuação desta centralidade indicará que ela é mais influente do que aquelas que possuem pontuações menores (Prabhakaran, Lathabai, & Changat, 2015). Para identificar os tópicos emergentes, a tabela com os parâmetros da rede de coocorrência de palavras-chave, no Laboratório de Dados do Gephi, foi ordenada do nó mais recente para o mais antigo.…”

Resumo: As palavras necessárias para criar uma análise de coocorrência podem ser coletadas dos títulos dos artigos, dos resumos e das palavras-chave do autor. Essas diferentes abordagens permitem identificar subáreas em cada campo e estudar suas características e tendências, retratar o perfil de pesquisa global, encontrar tópicos importantes, tendências disruptivas, procurar relacionamentos cooperativos e interpretar padrões de colaboração entre os autores. Este trabalho tem o objetivo de apresentar duas abordagens para a interpretação dos resultados de uma pesquisa bibliográfica. A primeira abordagem visa identificar o grau de evolução das publicações sobre um determinado tema usando a curva logística. A segunda visa identificar os tópicos emergentes a partir da análise de coocorrência de palavras-chave. Para exemplificar as duas abordagens, foi realizada uma pesquisa na base Scopus sobre o tema avaliação de aprendizagem. A análise da evolução das publicações revelou que o tema ainda está em crescimento e deverá alcançar a saturação por volta do ano 2040. A identificação dos tópicos emergentes indicou 20 palavras-chave que foram indexadas em 2021. Conclui-se que as abordagens são relevantes para analisar a evolução de um tema e indicar oportunidades para explorar tópicos emergentes.

“…Current studies of industry relationship mainly concentrate on the following areas: the industry related degree based on the influence of coefficient [10][11]; present situation study of industrial correlation among different countries, regions and industries [12][13]; research on the industry association effect based on the network characteristic analysis [14][15]; research on the characteristics of industrial relations from the view of industry chain [16][17][18][19]; measurement of the association among the industries from the perspective of evaluation index [20][21]. These studies mainly analyze the input-output, the associated network, and the industry chain based on the statistical data.…”

The emergence of new technologies will eventually create the relationship among different industries, and the different relationships among industries will reversely promote the continuous development of new technologies. This article proposes a procedural method with patent data to identify technology-related industries and analyze the inter-industrial relationships from a technical point of view. A matrix of correlation relationships within technologies is constructed through the International patent classification co-occurrence matrix to represent knowledge flows in the technical fields. Consistency between the technical fields and industries will expand to the knowledge flow among different industries. Finally, interrelationship among industries has been obtained through knowledge flow analysis. The concrete analysis of 3D printing techniques not only demonstrates the effectiveness of this method, but also provides a detailed description of the relationships among related industries. Current development of 3D printing technology focuses mostly on foundation research, whereas the industrial development of downstream applications is relatively slow. This means that the application industry has great development potential in the future, and it can provide future opportunities for technologies and new industries in China.
