The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Surface Engineering and its the corresponding percentile for the sake of comparison with the entire literature. Impact Factor is the most common scientometric index, which is defined by the number of citations of papers in two preceding years divided by the number of papers published in those years.
How Influential is Surface Engineering?

This Journal is the 8th out of 95 Materials Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 9% in the discipline of Materials Engineering. This Journal is the 87th out of 229 Materials Chemistry journals. This Journal is the 106th out of 308 Inorganic Chemistry journals. This Journal is the 108th out of 4,377 Arts and Humanities journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% in the science branch of Arts and Humanities. This Journal is the 111st out of 311 Physical Chemistry journals. This Journal is the 123rd out of 428 Condensed Matter Physics journals. This Journal is the 423rd out of 2,084 Physics journals. This Journal is the 426th out of 1,481 Materials Science journals. This Journal is the 734th out of 2,661 Chemistry journals. This Journal is the 971st out of 4,401 Applied Sciences journals. This Journal is the 2155th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 19% in the science branch of Physical Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
