Abstract The Journal of Applied Mathematical Modelling (AMM) is a leading international journal in the field of mathematics and engineering focused on research related to mathematical modelling of engineering and environmental processes, manufacturing, and industrial systems, whose first issue was published in 1976. Motivated by the 40th anniversary in 2016, this study aims to develop a bibliometric overview of the publications published in the journal from 1976 to 2016. The objective of this work is to identify the leading variables and trends which have influenced the journal most during these years. In doing so, the study uses the Web of Science Core Collection database to analyze the data. This work also develops a graphical mapping of the bibliometric material by using the visualization of similarities (VOS) viewer software. These graphs represent bibliographic coupling, citation and co-citation analysis, co-authorship and co-occurrence of keywords. The results show the diversity of the published documents and significant growth of the journal through time.

应用数学建模四十年：文献计量研究

摘要 The Journal of Applied Mathematical Modeling (AMM) 是数学和工程领域的国际领先期刊，专注于工程和环境过程、制造和工业系统的数学建模相关研究，其第一期于 1976 年出版。到 2016 年 40 周年之际，本研究旨在对 1976 年至 2016 年在该杂志上发表的出版物进行文献计量概述。这项工作的目的是确定这些年来对该杂志影响最大的主要变量和趋势。为此，该研究使用 Web of Science 核心合集数据库来分析数据。这项工作还通过使用相似性可视化 (VOS) 查看器软件开发了文献计量材料的图形映射。这些图表代表了书目耦合、引文和共引分析、共同作者和关键词的共现。结果表明，随着时间的推移，已发表文件的多样性和期刊的显着增长。
