**5. Conclusion**

In this work we have performed research trend analysis for Fracture mechanics applications in soil, through this study we have found the following important points that will give directions to future researchers.


*Fracture Mechanics Application in Soil Strength Identification: A Scientometric Analysis DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.112451*

Hence, we suggest further study in this area using other databases and we are sure that this work will serve as a point of interest.
