The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Progress in Aerospace Sciences 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 Progress in Aerospace Sciences?
Progress in Aerospace Sciences is the 1st out of 132 Aerospace Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the sub-discipline of Aerospace Engineering. This Journal is the 11th out of 320 Mechanics of Materials journals. This means the journal is among the top 4% in the sub-discipline of Mechanics of Materials. This Journal is the 12th out of 551 Mechanics journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% in the sub-discipline of Mechanics. This Journal is the 14th out of 667 Mechanical Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% in the discipline of Mechanical Engineering. This Journal is the 55th out of 2,084 Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% in the discipline of Physics. This Journal is the 120th out of 4,401 Applied Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% in the science branch of Applied Sciences. This Journal is the 233rd out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 3% 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.
