Abstract
The quantitative content analysis focuses on identifying and quantifying, whereas the qualitative approach focuses on analyzing and comprehending. It examines words, ideas, and concepts in both forms of writing before analyzing the results. This paper investigated the effectiveness of keywords as a metric for collecting the information and philosophy of science offered in EDM articles in composite materials considering surface roughness/finish/integrity. It consists of 440 articles published from 2000 to 2021 and collected from Scopus. The content analysis includes author and index keywords, word clouds, three field plots, a tree map of title and abstract terms, and word growth of the top keywords. Content analysis was performed with the assistance of VOSviwer and Biblioshiny. The latest trends, future roadmaps, and concluding annotations are presented at the end of the analysis. Buddy researchers working in the field may use content analysis to identify research hotspots and gaps. Scholars can quantify and analyze the existence, meanings, and linkages of specific phrases, patterns, or notions.
