3.4. Most Global Cited Documents The 5 most cited documents in the present collection of articles are shown in Table 2, along with the publishing source, Scopus quartile and percentile qualification, the year of publication, the total number of citations (TC) since the year of publication, and the total citation (TC) per year as an indication of the average number of citations per year. Regarding the presented information it is possible to conclude that the “hot topic” occupying the first and second places is related to the AM of aluminium alloys processed by selective laser melting (SLM). This topic is followed by new and emerging topics of interest regarding cost analysis and the economic impact and perspective of AM processes in the aeronautical production context. The last two positions are addressing review articles, suggesting that this type of documentation is widely used by the academic and scientific community as a baseline of information for the development of research of other authors.
