Abstract

The data has been formatted in Microsoft office exceeds expectations arrangement to avoid the duplication of the downloaded information. The totally 17112 records have been retrieved from the Scopus database for the period of study. Finally, the research has been done for analyzing the data only 17102 taken for further discussion. Results: The most noteworthy efficiency is recorded in 1995 with 767papers (4.48% of the complete papers in a quarter-century). It is seen that the most minimal Relative Growth Rate (RGR) 0.04 found in 2008, 2010 2012 and 2014 RGR ascended to 0.75 in 1990 and a normal mean estimation of RGR was 0.15. The Dt was an expanding pattern showed up from 0.95 to 17.33 and a diminished tend showed up as 13.86 in the year 2011. The mean RGR between 0.08 to 0.15 and the mean for Dt from 2037 to 9.70. Clearly mean for RGR indicated an expanding and diminishing pattern saw during the period. The Relative Growth Rate is 0.64 in 1990 and 0.06 in 2013. The Dt development pattern showed up from 1.08 in 1990 it ascended to 11.55 in 2014. A normal mean of RGR and Dt was 0.13 and 7.24 separately. The RGR was seeing that fluctuating patterns go somewhere in the range of 0.04 and 0.28 in over the time of the study. The DT showed up the fluctuating pattern during the period. A normal mean of RGR and DT were 0.14 and 8.16 separately.
