Science and engineering is the foundation of national heavy equipment research, especially basic theoretical research, which often involves major national industrial changes, technological innovation and iteration are extremely rapid, and the control requirements for frontier development are more urgent.
Therefore, science and engineering have a huge need to read foreign language databases, but for some small and medium-sized scientific research teams and non-science and engineering colleges, the demand is important and the procurement cost is too high at the same time.
This article mainly includes three aspects.
1. What are the fields of science and engineering, and why do science and engineering need a database of scientific and technological literature in foreign languages?
2. What are the foreign language databases for science and engineering?
3. What is the most commonly used procurement method for science and engineering foreign language databases?
1. What are the fields of science and engineering, and why do we need a database of scientific and technological literature in foreign languages?
The first step is to understand what science and engineering are and what exactly is included in science and engineering.
Science and engineering is a vast field that encompasses both science and engineering.
Science includes mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, earth science, biology and other science disciplines, with a main focus on theoretical research. Engineering includes mechanical, civil engineering, architecture, chemical engineering, biological engineering and other engineering disciplines, focusing on practical operations. There is a difference between science and engineering, science produces scientists, and engineering trains engineers.
Science and engineering is very important for the development of the country, is the foundation and driving force of scientific and technological innovation, can promote the development of emerging industries and the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, can enhance the country's military strength and national defense level, and infrastructure construction is also inseparable from a large number of science and engineering research.
The foreign language science and technology literature database provides the latest scientific research achievements and academic progress around the world, including a large number of academic papers, patents, technical reports and other literature resources, which are indispensable for science and engineering researchers, and can be used to track the international research frontier, understand the latest scientific research trends and trends, and better support research work.
Therefore, it is essential to have access to foreign language databases for science and engineering.
2. What are the foreign language databases for science and engineering?
Let's take a look at the most common databases used in physics, chemistry and other fields in science and engineering.
1. AIP database
The AIP database includes 27 journals and 1 conference proceedings, and most of the journals are indexed by SCI, with more than 41 million articles. It covers seven disciplines: applied physics, biological sciences, chemical physics, energy, materials science, nanoscience, and photonics. AIP's flagship journals are: Applied Physics Letters, Journal of Applied Physics, and The Journal of Chemical Physics, which are among the leading and most cited scientific journals in their respective fields.
2. CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service)
CASSciFinder(全称是CASSciFinderDiscoveryPlatformforAcademics),
It is a new generation of authoritative scientific research tools and one of the most advanced search engines in the industry. CAS international team of scientists tracks global scientific and technological progress, collects and summarizes, manually indexes, and manages global patents, scientific and technological journals, etc.
Covers chemistry and all related fields (e.g. chemistry, biology, medicine, materials, food, applied chemistry, chemistry
Engineering, Agronomy, Polymers, Physics, etc.). A collection of chemistry and related literature from the early 19th century to the present,
Literature types include journals, patents, conference papers, dissertations, books, technical reports, reviews, and preprints
and network resources, etc. CAS has more than 1,400 employees, including hundreds of subject and data experts
to create correlations between data, develop state-of-the-art chemical retrieval engines and applications,
Patentees provide state-of-the-art information solutions for chemistry and related disciplines.
3.Royal Society of Chemistry/英国皇家化学学会期刊及数据库
RSC (Royal Society of Chemistry) is an international authoritative academic institution, a major disseminator and publisher of chemical information, and its journals and databases have always been the core journals and authoritative databases in the field of chemistry. Founded in 1841, the association is a professional academic society composed of 55,000 chemical researchers, teachers, and industrialists. There are currently more than 50 electronic journals in the RSC database, most of which are indexed by SCI, and are the most cited chemical journals. The RSC Backtrack Database includes books and approximately 260,000 articles published by the RSC between 1841 and 2007, representing approximately 1.6 million pages of groundbreaking chemistry literature. The RSC database covers chemistry and chemistry-related disciplines, including chemistry and chemical engineering, materials, biology, pharmaceutical, environmental protection, food processing and other fields, including journals, e-books, archives, abstract databases and the free ChemSpider chemistry professional search engine, which is an important source of information for academic research.
4.IOP Publishing Journals/英国物理学会电子期刊
Founded in 1873, the Institute of Physics (IOP) is an organization dedicated to improving the understanding and application of physics. With more than 50,000 members worldwide, IOP has become a major disseminator of physics research through expert exchanges between the government and the private sector. IOP Publishing is an important part of the British Physical Society, playing a pioneering role in the scientific and technical publishing and electronic dissemination of physics, and published its first journal, Proceedings of the Physical Society (1874-1967), in 1874.
In 2023, a total of 93 journals will be available for co-publication on the IOP platform.
