Embroidery and weaving techniques are part of the cultural heritage and are the fruit of human civilisation. With the improvement of the technical level of the embroidery machine manufacturing industry, the global embroidery Market in 2022 has reached 7.35 billion US dollars, growing by 10.18% year-on-year, making it an economic research field. In this paper, we used WOS databases to search core papers and CiteSpace, a knowledge graph analysis tool, to determine the current status and trends of research in embroidery from 2010 to 2022. Based on the screened articles, the number of publications, research authors and institutions, keyword co-occurrences, and changes in highlighted words were analyzed in this study. The results showed that China, the United States, and the United Kingdom are the leading researchers in embroidery. Chinese scholars have had an interdisciplinary trend recently and have begun to publish abroad actively. The results of these studies have provided an opportunity for scholars in the field of embroidery to study the cultural connotation and innovative design of embroidery. These results point out the direction for scholars in the field of embroidery research and innovation, identify the shortcomings of each in the current situation of research in China and overseas, find a sustainable path for the development of embroidery craft, and promote the exchange and mutual appreciation of civilizations.

The Daguangbao mega-landslide (China), induced by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake (Mw = 7.9), with an area of approximately 8 km2, is one of the largest landslides in the world. Experts predicted that the potential risk and instability of the landslide might remain for many decades, or even longer. Monitoring the activity of such a large landslide is hence critical. Terrain Observation by Progressive Scans (TOPS) mode from the Sentinel-1 satellite provides us with up-to-date high-quality Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images over a wide ground coverage (250 × 250 km), enabling full exploitation of various InSAR applications. However, the TOPS mode introduces azimuth-dependent Doppler variations to radar signals, which requires an additional processing step especially for SAR interferometry. Sentinel-1 TOPS data have been widely applied to earthquakes, but the performance of TOPS data-based time series analysis requires further exploitation. In this study, Sentinel-1 TOPS data were employed to investigate landslide post-seismic activities for the first time. To deal with the azimuth-dependent Doppler variations, a processing chain of TOPS time series interferometry approach was developed. Since the Daguangbao landslide is as a result of the collapse of a whole mountain caused by the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake, the existing Digital Elevation Models (DEMs, e.g. SRTM and ASTER) exhibit height differences of up to approximately 500 m. Tandem-X images acquired after the earthquake were used to generate a high resolution post-seismic DEM. The high gradient topographic errors of the SRTM DEM (i.e. the differences between the pre-seismic SRTM and the actual post-seismic elevation), together with low coherence in mountainous areas make it difficult to derive a precise DEM using the traditional InSAR processing procedure. A re-flattening iterative method was hence developed to generate a precise TanDEM-X DEM in this study. The volume of the coseismic Daguangbao landslide was estimated to be of 1.189 ± 0.110 × 109 m3 by comparing the postseismic Tandem-X DEM with the preseismic SRTM DEM, which is consistent with the engineering geological survey result. The time-series results from Sentinel-1 show that some sectors of the Daguangbao landslide are still active (and displaying four sliding zones) and exhibiting a maximum displacement rate of 8 cm/year, even eight years after the Wenchuan earthquake. The good performance of TOPS in this time series analysis indicates that up-to-date high-quality TOPS data with spatiotemporal baselines offer significant potential in terms of future InSAR applications. ; This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant No. 41474003.
