Introduction and Objective:
Given the rapid technological transformations in the current era, the “Industry 5.0” paradigm has increasingly attracted the attention of researchers, policymakers, and industries as a novel and transformative approach. The present study aims to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis and scientific mapping of literature related to the Industry 5.0 domain. The main objectives and research questions of this study encompass four fundamental areas: first, identifying the leading countries, top universities, institutions, and authors; second, examining the precise growth trend of publications from 2014 to 2026; third, introducing key and influential journals; and fourth, analyzing the network structure of keywords (co-occurrence network) and identifying the main thematic clusters to better understand the research fronts and paradigm shifts in this field.
Methodology:
In terms of its purpose, this study is considered an applied-developmental research conducted with a quantitative approach and a descriptive-analytical method based on scientometric indicators. The theoretical and practical framework of this research is primarily built upon word co-occurrence analysis, networking, and keyword clustering to reveal the conceptual and intellectual structure of this field. For this purpose, specialized science mapping tools were utilized to process the data. Furthermore, in the literature review section, by examining national and international studies, a special focus was placed on concepts such as intelligent systems, knowledge management, and integrated systems as the foundation for the transition to Industry 5.0.
Findings:
The examination of quantitative data demonstrates the extraordinary dynamism and explosive growth of this field, with an annual growth rate of 42.96%. The emerging nature of this arena is well confirmed by the average article age, which is only 1.85 years. In terms of scientific impact, the average number of citations per document is 14.26. Analyzing collaboration patterns shows an average of 4.25 authors per article, with an international collaboration rate of 34.43% (alongside 202 single-authored papers). Geographically, “China,” producing over 500 scientific documents, is the undisputed leader in this field. China’s high volume of Single Country Publications (SCP) indicates the existence of an independent, highly developed, and robust research ecosystem. Nevertheless, the scope of international participation is extensive; Asian countries (such as India, South Korea, and Iran), European countries (like Italy, the UK, and Germany), and the Americas (the US, Brazil, and Canada) play an active role in scientific production. Among the authors, researchers such as “Wang Lehui” and “Leng Jiu,” each with over 30 scientific documents, were identified as the most prolific and prominent contributors.
Conclusion:
The results of this scientometric analysis clearly prove that the development of concepts and technologies related to “Industry 5.0” goes beyond a mere academic topic or a regional issue; rather, it has turned into a full-fledged “global geo-technological competition.” The rapid growth of publications, the youthfulness of the research literature, and the geographical diversity of key players indicate that the transition to this paradigm is an international strategic priority. To maintain their competitiveness and avoid falling behind this major transformation, countries and scientific institutions require targeted investments in integrated intelligent systems, the enhancement of knowledge management, and a significant expansion of international collaborations within leading scientific networks.
