Bibliometric-Based Research Status and Development Trends of Dam Breach Studies

Resumen

Dam breach can trigger severe flood disasters, threatening life and property safety, and having long-term impacts on the environment, society, and the economy. Dam breach floods also contaminate water bodies, degrading water quality and its sustainability. This study analyzes the characteristics and trends of dam breach research using research findings included in the CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Beijing, China) database and the Web of Science (WoS) core database. Bibliometric methods, including word frequency analysis, co-citation analysis, and clustering analysis, were applied to the retrieved data. Using the CiteSpace (v6.3.R2) visualization tool, the study conducted statistical analyses and generated maps for publication trends, research institutions, and research hotspots. The findings indicate the following. (1) From 2000 to 2023, the number of research outcomes has been continuously growing both domestically and internationally with significantly more foreign-language publications than Chinese ones. (2) Chinese research institutions, notably the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute, have substantial international influence. (3) In terms of research hotspots, Chinese studies focus on the failure mechanisms of earth-rock dams, while foreign studies emphasize dam breach flood flows. (4) Establishing numerical models has emerged as a common trend in both Chinese and foreign research. These insights help identify deficiencies in current methods and technologies, allowing for the proposal of more scientific strategies for dam safety assessment. Based on these conclusions, some insights are proposed with the aim of reducing the risk of dam breaches, ensuring sustainable water resource management and utilization, promoting environmental protection, and fostering harmonious socio-economic development.
