“…Bursts of keyword citation refer to a sharp increase in the citation of a certain keyword. Burst detection [31] is an effective analytical method to find the keywords of special concern to the relevant scientific communities in a certain time period utilizing CiteSpace software to analyze the emergence of keywords. As is shown in Fig.…”

“…This which would not happen if it were a traditional literature review, in which the raw material is the articles retrieved by the database search tool. For the type of study proposed, it is not uncommon to use only one database, as in the articles by Mishra et al ( 2018 ) and Ferreira and Santos ( 2018 ), in which only the SCOPUS (Elsevier) database was used to perform bibliometric mapping, as well as in the works of Fosso-Wamba ( 2020 ) and Argoubi et al ( 2020 ), which used only Web of Science (WoS) to conduct a bibliometric study. The keywords used for the advanced search in the WoS database, with the respective Boolean operators, can be seen in Table 1 .…”

“…Although there are already several literature reviews in the area, we did not identify any paper that adopts the bibliometric mapping approach as the main methodology for displaying the intellectual structure of the HO research field. Bibliometric mapping is a quantitative method that allows visualization of scientific literature from bibliographic data, allowing identification of the intellectual structure of the research area through analysis of the interrelationships between articles (Argoubi et al, 2020 ). The intellectual structure of a field of knowledge is a structured representation of the knowledge produced, representing a set of attributes that can indicate a holistic understanding of the scientific domain, including its research traditions, disciplinary composition, topics covered and patterns of interrelations (Calabretta et al, 2011 ; Shafique, 2013 ).…”

Humanitarian Operations (HO) have attracted the interest of professionals and academics, mainly due to their potential to reduce human suffering in disaster situations, leading to consolidation as a research field. With the evolution of the HO research field, synthesis of the knowledge and previous discoveries has become an important task for its advancement. In this study, a literature review based on bibliometric mapping techniques was carried out in order to identify the HO intellectual structure. As main results, we visually present the general emerging structure of the HO field using the VOS viewer software to devise the networks of the principal articles. The seminal research in this field is organized into two clusters: Humanitarian Supply Chain Management, and Distribution Optimization in Humanitarian Logistics. Regarding the emerging intellectual structure, three clusters were identified: Relationship Management and Big Data, Healthcare facility location, and Network flow restoration optimization. Finally, some gaps and questions for future research are presented.

A variety of problems related to waste management systems can be found in the literature, as they have become tougher to solve over the years. With this in mind, a report of the most influential research concerns in this field could help develop innovative works for solving waste management applications. Literature reviews appear in most introductions and discussion sections of research reports, case reports, and expert opinion papers. It was immediately observed that Cluster Analysis, a multivariate data mining technique, has been used in various applications for sustainability issues. For this reason, this paper shows the results of a Systematic Literature Review on Cluster Analysis techniques applied to waste management. This paper's primary goal is to detect what is happening with the applications and techniques in clustering techniques for waste management and, in this way, define possible gaps in this research field. The 61 analyzed papers were categorized into nine application types within the field of waste management (logistics/business; landfill research; theoretical/consequential; waste collection problems; location/selection; monitoring/decision support systems; leachate/water contamination; waste incineration/energy production and, waste forecast/waste production behavior). Following an analysis of their content, gaps were found related to exploring the complex situations in each problem. Instead of using general rules and constraints for their methodologies to solve real-world problems, they resorted to theoretical orientation solutions. Furthermore, suggestions from specialists in the field and more fitting constraints related to the data evaluated could make the works seem less theoretical and more visually applicable.
