    (2022) Rodríguez Grau, Gonzalo; Marín Uribe, Carlos Rodolfo; Cortés Rodríguez, Patricio; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.

    Wood is a sustainable and renewable material with a lower carbon footprint than other materials. However, its transformation into engineered products industrially, such as glulam, requires kiln drying, which implies energy consumption and loss of wood resources. Recent research has carried out green gluing, a variant of glulam characterized by a reduction of the drying process. Interest in it has increased as a new method of improving the use of wood that does not meet industry standards. It has been accomplished by developing adhesives for wood with high moisture content, but the variables involved are not yet completely understood. Therefore, conducting further research and analyzing the relevant publications is necessary. Bibliometric analysis was the method used, which included documents stored (from 2000 to 2020) in Scopus (Elsevier), Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics), and SciELO Citation Index (Web of Science—Clarivate Analytics) databases. The bibliometric analysis identified three main areas to develop: glue wood, glue properties, and analysis methods. The studies were concentrated on a few countries and research groups. The main progress has been made in synthetic and natural (or environmentally friendly) glue topics. The improvement of technique could enlarge the opportunities for collaboration and innovation in wood material science.

    Bibliotecas universitarias como socios estratégicos en la evaluación de la investigación académica: caso de éxito del servicio de bibliometría del Sistema de Bibliotecas UC
    (2019) Cortés Rodríguez, Patricio; Depoortere, Denise; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Bibliotecas UC
    El Sistema de Bibliotecas UC de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile ofrece desde hace varios años un servicio de bibliometría, el cual responde a requerimientos de unidades académicas y administrativas encargadas de evaluar el impacto y visibilidad de la investigación académica desarrollada al interior de la universidad. En los últimos años, el servicio se ha focalizado en aportar información en aspectos relevantes para la gestión de la universidad: acreditación institucional y programas académicos; benchmarking interinstitucional; apoyo a concursos internos y externos; análisis por disciplina académica y por género; visibilizar la producción generada por académicos y doctorados; validar reportes de productividad enviados por agencias de financiamiento. Como resultado de estos requerimientos, los informes bibliométricos, desarrollados en base a herramientas bibliométricas (Web of Science-InCites y Scopus) y altmétricas, se han vuelto cada vez más complejos en la medida que nuevas demandas institucionales, incluso político-sociales, han influido en la evaluación de la investigación. De ese modo, se reconocen diversos factores que han influido en la relevancia de este servicio al interior de la Universidad y el reconocimiento de Bibliotecas UC como socio estratégico. A su vez, surgen nuevos desafíos que han de abordarse para lograr su sostenibilidad en el ecosistema académico.

    Methodology to categorize the research output of academic institutions, through the Sustainable Development goals (SDGs)
    (2021) Cortés Rodríguez, Patricio; Rondanelli Delpiano, Renzo; Santander Meneses, Paola; Vilches Vargas, Ricardo; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Bibliotecas UC
    Background: This article presents a methodology to categorize scientific publications according to the targets of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. For the above, a dataset with bibliographic and descriptive attributes of 2,379 articles from 2017 by co-authors affiliated to the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus databases, was used. Methods: The methodology considered three relevant and consecutive milestones: establishment of the reading level that was applied for each publication record, which considers a proportional amount of information; assignment of one of the 18 categories identified for the analysis of the information, which include the 17 SDGs and the option "unclassified" and one of the 169 subcategories corresponding to the specific goals; and, finally, recording the status of the review process carried out, which allowed control of the progress and quality of the cross-review. Results: The results show that 58.6% of the articles contribute to a primary target, of these 233 contribute to a secondary target; goals 3, 4, 9, and 11 are the most frequent in the process of assigning SDGs. There is an 81% increase in the use of alphanumeric targets when they are assigned as secondary targets. At the same time, cross-checking is shown to be beneficial when allowing the reclassification of 190 articles to some of the targets. Finally, it is established that levels 2 and 3 enabled better classification, given that the contents considered provide more information; however, it is significant that through level 1, 355 articles were categorized as "unclassified". Conclusions: It is concluded that the methodology allows for a conclusive, exhaustive, rigorous, extensive, and varied classification through the different milestones and actions carried out, providing strategic information for decision making and research management in the academy-society relationship.

    Native wood revaluation through green gluing: a systemic review
    (2022) Rodríguez Grau, Gonzalo; Pinto González, Francisca; Cortés Rodríguez, Patricio; Marín Uribe, Carlos Rodolfo; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Escuela de Construcción Civil; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Bibliotecas UC
    The objective of this study is to identify more representative variables that can be considered during the gluing process of wood from native forests in Chile with the green gluing technique, given that it has the potential to produce structural elements for the construction industry from fine woods that are currently undervalued. In order to do so, the methodology consisted of applying a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and a bibliometric mapping of scientific publications (2000-2019) indexed in the Scopus database. As a result of the analysis, 3 thematic lines were established: "Environmental Impact", "Performance" and "Variable-Influenced Performance". Based on these lines, the most representative variables that determine the production of wet glue laminated wood, were extracted. These identified variables will be the basis for the elaboration of a green gluing methodology that has been adapted to the native timber gluing process.

    Research data in astronomy : assessing its impact and visibility through a bibliometric analysis
    (2022) Cortés Rodríguez, Patricio; Depoortere, Denise; Opazo Calfin, Lucy
    In the context of the Open Access and Open Science initiatives, Research Data Management becomes relevant and of current interest to researchers, libraries, and institutions that contribute to the development of scientific knowledge. Particularly in Astronomy, it is a challenge to convert, standardize, process, and arrange large volumes of information and data (estimated in several petabytes), coming from the results of astronomical observations, astronomical catalogs, computational codes, among others, which constitute a fundamental initial step in scientific research . Due to this, and the limited studies on this subject, a bibliometric methodology was applied to analyze indexed datasets in the Data Citation Index (Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics) in the Astronomy & Astrophysics category, for the period 2010 - 2019, allowing to identify annual evolutions, countries, and institutions with higher productivity, main repositories, and hosting platforms used in publications indexed in Web of Science. The analysis was complemented with InCites (Clarivate Analytics) bibliometric tools to determine the linkage of the publications with the datasets and their impact. The results from this study show a substantial increase in the number of indexed datasets provided by institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, Spain, and Chile, during the analyzed period. In turn, the publications that cite the main datasets show superior performances in the number of citations and the standardized impact, among other productivity and impact metrics.
