Abstract

The present study is based on 11502 citations appended to the theses of 5 Energy Engineering, 343 Production Engineering, and 169 Industrial Engineering submitted to Engineering GNDEC for the award of thesesbetween 2011 and 2020. According to the study journals 5069 other sources, 4349 others citation, Conference document 938 were the most preferred sources of Mechanical Engineering Researchers accounting for 11502 of total citations, followed by Book with 588 citations. Citation analysis is carried out on all journal articles published in the journal of Energy, Production Engineering & Industrial (ME) 2011-2020.The study concludes that, together with other approaches, citation analysis remains one of the most important tools to assess the usefulness of library holdings for M.Tech students in the activities of mechanical engineering.
