A Bibliometric Analysis of the Nexus Network Journal

The state of architectural research and practice has historically been closely connected to the expansion of knowledge in mathematics. This relation leads the evolution of architecture in parallel with mathematics. As a result, investigating these disciplines together provides significant insights into notable changes in architecture from past to present. This paper explores core themes in architecture-mathematics relation and investigates this relationship from various perspectives. In this respect, the Nexus Network Journal, as a journal that focuses on the nexus of architecture and mathematics, was selected for bibliometric analysis. This study includes a survey of the journal's articles published between 2008-2021 accessible from the Web of Science database. Our research revealed core literature and sources that nourished the journal, recognized main actors and their social networks, and, lastly, clustered the articles published in the Nexus Network Journal to identify core themes.
