    A co-authorship analysis of product and industrial design education literature, 2000-2015
    (The Design Society, 2018) İlhan, Ali Oğulcan; Industrial Design; Bohemia, E.; Kovacevic, A.; Buck, L.; Childs, P.; Green, S.; Hall, A.; Dasan, A.; İLHAN, Ali Oğulcan
    Today, collaboration is the norm rather than exception in scholarly publications. Through coauthorship scholars can increase the volume and quality of their scientific output. Utilising these networks, they establish knowledge communities, which shape how academic fields evolve. As such recognising the structure of these collaborations is important for understanding fields and their trajectories. This paper undertakes an exploratory quantitative analysis of co-authorship networks in industrial and product design literature extracted from Web of Science between 2000 and 2015. Results indicate that the number of co-authored papers is rising yet large research networks do not exist in this area.

    Collaboration in design research: An analysis of co-authorship in 13 design research journals, 2000–2015
    (Taylor & Francis, 2019) İlhan, Ali Oğulcan; Oğuz, Murat Can; Industrial Design; İLHAN, Ali Oğulcan; Oğuz, Murat Can
    This paper utilizes social network analysis and multivariate statistical methods to quantitatively analyse co-authorship patterns between 2000 and 2015 in 13 influential design research journals. The results indicate that the importance and propensity of co-authorship is expanding in design research. Furthermore, the impact of an article, measured by year-adjusted citation counts, is significantly greater when it is co-authored. The structure of the co-authorship network is mostly comprised of small yet unconnected groups of authors, who seldom collaborate beyond a single article.
