The dynamic analysis of social networks is a fairly unexplored area in the field of Social Network Analysis, especially in Brazil, bringing the prospect of expanding the network structural studies to incorporate temporal evolution of how the network evolves. The article works with a case study in the area of Communication Sciences of the data collected through the portal Univerciencia.org, applying a set of 09 indicators to be analyzed over a period of 26 years in a set of 1953 documents. The article shows how the network evolves in a fragmented and dependent way on the action of local groups.
