| This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of soil improvement research using Web of Science (WOS) data from 2020 to 2025, conducted with VOSviewer software. A total of 6,850 articles were analyzed using the keywords" soil stabilization,"" soil improvement,"" ground stabilization," and" soil reinforcement." The analysis covered multiple aspects, including citation and publication trends by country, institutional citations, co-authorship networks, keyword co-occurrence, and bibliographic coupling among authors. The results indicate that China leads in publications (1,580) and citations (15,685), followed by India and the United States. Meanwhile, Singapore recorded the highest citation-per-publication ratio (15.6), whereas India had the lowest (8.2), suggesting differences in global research impact despite high publication output. Institutional analysis revealed that Chinese universities dominate the field, while Islamic Azad University (Iran) ranked second, despite Iran not being among the top-ranking countries in overall publication impact. The keyword analysis showed that" geosynthetics" was the most frequently used term, reflecting the increasing prominence of geosynthetic-based soil improvement techniques. Other frequently used keywords included" soil stabilization,"" ground improvement,"" unconfined compressive strength," and" soil improvement." The study provides valuable insights into global research collaborations, emerging topics, and areas requiring further investigation, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of soil improvement research trends and future directions. |
