Bibliometric Database for Improvement Methods of Wooden Musical Instruments

Description

This study establishes a bibliometric database for wooden instrument improvement methods, integrating multidisciplinary research achievements through a systematic literature review approach to reveal the comprehensive research landscape of wood acoustic performance enhancement. The database sources 1,983 original articles from four authoritative platforms, including Web of Science and Scopus, and employs a PRISMA-compliant four-tier screening process to ultimately include 51 high-quality publications. Its data architecture spans three dimensions—metadata (title/author/year/journal), research content (experimental methods/core themes), and influencing factors (theoretical mechanisms/structural parameters)—leveraging Zotero-VOSviewer-CiteSpace analytical tools for quantitative analysis. It specifically focuses on the acoustic vibration parameter system of wood, encompassing seven key indicators such as specific dynamic elastic modulus and acoustic radiation quality constant, while integrating interdisciplinary improvement methods including physical treatments (thermal aging), chemical modifications (acetylation), and biotechnologies (microbial fermentation). Validated by 90.2% coding consistency and 0.98 reliability, the database precisely maps the field’s evolutionary trajectory from traditional craftsmanship to AI simulation and sustainable material development. It provides data-driven support to resolve the conflict between scarce premium wood resources and acoustic quality enhancement, advancing the digital and ecological transformation of wood-based instrument manufacturing.
