In this study, data mining, followed by the scientometric analysis of fiber-reinforced shotcrete (FRS), was carried out for knowledge mapping, co-citations, and co-occurrence. The information needed for the analysis was retrieved from the Scopus search engine. Important publishing sources, keyword analysis, writers with the most contribution in citations and publications, the most-cited articles, and the regions most actively engaged in FRS research were identified throughout the data review process. Moreover, the need for FRS, the major constraints associated with their usage, and their possible solutions were discussed. The analysis of the bibliographic data showed that research publications on FRS progressed inconsistently till 2015, and over the past 6 years (2016–2021), publication numbers increased steadily, which exhibited the interest of academics in fiber-reinforced materials. The analysis of keywords in the field showed that the most common FRS research keywords are shotcreting, shotcrete, steel fibers, FRS, and fiber-reinforced materials. Keyword analysis showed that FRS is typically used for tunnel rock support and lining. Based on the review of relevant literature, research gaps have been identified, and future research has been suggested.

纤维增强喷射混凝土建筑应用研究动态综述

在本研究中，首先进行数据挖掘，然后对纤维增强喷射混凝土（FRS）进行科学计量分析，以进行知识图谱、共引和共现。分析所需的信息是从 Scopus 搜索引擎检索的。在整个数据审查过程中，确定了重要的出版来源、关键词分析、在引用和出版物中贡献最大的作者、被引用最多的文章以及最积极参与 FRS 研究的地区。此外，还讨论了 FRS 的需求、与其使用相关的主要限制以及可能的解决方案。对书目数据的分析显示，截至2015年，FRS的研究出版物进展不一致，而在过去的6年（2016-2021）中，出版物数量稳步增长，这体现了学术界对纤维增强材料的兴趣。对领域关键词的分析表明，最常见的FRS研究关键词是喷射混凝土、喷射混凝土、钢纤维、FRS和纤维增强材料。关键词分析表明，FRS 通常用于隧道岩石支护和衬砌。在查阅相关文献的基础上，找出了研究空白，并提出了未来的研究建议。
