Abstract

Abstract: In order to fully understand research status and developing trend of project risk management, 1 452 documents collected in the Web of Science Core collection database from 2000 to 2020 were taken as research samples, bibliometric analysis and visual analysis were used as research methods, research situation of project risk management was analysed from the number of papers published and developing trend, group of authors and issuing organization, classic journals and important documents these aspects. The results show that the number of papers and cited times of risk management research in the past 20 years has been increasing year by year, and China is the most important country in the research achievements in this field. Journal of Construction Engineering and Management is the most published hot journals, and the top 10 research institutions are from China, the United States, Singapore, Australia and Iran respectively. Research focus on the subject of project risk management, such as object, method and technology application.

Key words: engineering project, risk management, bibliometric analysis, research topics, development trend
