The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics 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 Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics?
Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics is the 1st out of 25 Fluid Mechanics journals. This means the journal is among the top 4% in the sub-discipline of Fluid Mechanics. This Journal is the 3rd out of 551 Mechanics journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the sub-discipline of Mechanics. This Journal is the 4th out of 428 Condensed Matter Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the sub-discipline of Condensed Matter Physics. This Journal is the 15th out of 2,084 Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the discipline of Physics. This Journal is the 39th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% 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.
