A bibliographic analysis of transformer literature 2001-2010

This paper analyzes the bibliography on transformer research covering the period of 2001-2010. Due to the large number of publications in peer review journals, conferences and symposia contributions were not included. That is why 22 peer review journals were investigated, in which 933 papers including the word “transformer” in their title have been published in the decade 2001-2010. The most productive and high-impact authors and countries are identified. The four most productive countries are Japan, USA, China, and Canada. More than 75 citations were received by each one of the five most cited papers. The bibliographic research presented in this paper is important because it includes and analyzes the best research papers on transformers coming from many countries all over the world and published in top rated scientific electrical engineering journals.
