Abstract

Sustainability and energy are frequently used concepts today. This is due to climate change, which has been linked to rising carbon emissions. The transportation sector is one of the sectors that increase carbon emissions. The aim of this study, determined in this direction, is to evaluate the progress of research and applications qualitatively and to share the results by examining the scientific outputs in the field of transportation of the key words containing the concepts of sustainability and energy. The studies in the Web of Science database were evaluated for this, yielding a total of 611 studies. As a research method, Bibliometric Analysis and review of top 10 prominent studies were included. It has been determined that the studies focus on political regulation, searching for the most effective solution with a mathematical model, and city logistics; it has also been determined that technological and academic solutions are still needed in the field.

Ulaştırma Alanında Enerji ve Sürdürülebilirlik Konusunda Bibliyometrik Analiz ve Trendler

Abstract

Sürdürülebilirlik ve enerji günümüzde sık sık anılan kavramlar olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bunun sebebi artan karbon salınımına bağlanan iklim değişikliğidir. Ulaştırma sektörü de bu durumdan nasibini almaktadır. Zira en yüksek karbon salınımı gerçekleştiren sektörlerden biridir. Bu doğrultuda belirlenen bu çalışmanın amacı da sürdürülebilirlik ve enerji kavramlarını içeren kilit kelimelerin ulaştırma alanında ortaya konulan bilimsel çıktıların incelenmesiyle araştırma ve uygulamaların seyrini nitel olarak değerlendirmek ve sonuçlarını paylaşmaktır. Bunun için Web of Science veri tabanındaki çalışmalar inceleniş toplamda 611 araştırmaya ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma yöntemi olarak ise Bibliyometrik Analize ve öne çıkan 10 çalışmanın Literatür Analizine yer verilmiştir. Çalışmaların politik düzenleme, matematiksel model ile en etkin çözümü arama ve şehir lojistiği üzerine odaklandığı tespit edilmiş; alanda hala teknolojik ve akademik çözümlere ihtiyaç olduğu görülmüştür.
