Introduction

Material Science is an interdisciplinary field concerned with the relationships among material composition, structure, processing, properties, and performance. Research in this area can contribute to the development and characterization of materials for scientific and technological applications. Assessment of scholarly activity in such a broad field may involve multiple dimensions, including publication output, citation activity, collaboration, methodological contribution, and research relevance.

Bibliometric indicators are frequently used to summarize aspects of research performance. The h-index, for example, was introduced as an indicator combining publication productivity and citation impact, while subsequent research has emphasized that citation indicators should be interpreted in relation to disciplinary and career-specific contexts. [1][3]
