Abstract

Any flourishing scientific publication must emphasise on describing the structure of knowledge, the development of research themes, and the creation of new topics. Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, a Scopus-indexed top journal is making strides with an average of 180 articles published each year with multi-disciplinary spectrums. The whole objective of the study was to map out the knowledge clusters within the considered timeframe and to help the budding researchers to pick and explore the emerging themes. This study makes use of a bibliometric strategy and knowledge mapping, using CiteSpace and R Biblioshiny to conduct a quantitative and visual analysis of articles published between the years 2016 and 2021.
