Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A method for space mission trajectory design is presented in the form of a greedy global search algorithm. It uses invariant manifolds of unstable periodic orbits and its main advantage is that it performs a global search for the suitable legs of the invariant manifolds to be connected for a preliminary transfer design, as well as the appropriate points of the legs for maneuver application. The designed indirect algorithm bases the greedy choice on the optimality conditions that are assumed for the theoretical minimum transfer cost of a spacecraft when using invariant manifolds. The method is applied to a test case space mission design project in the Earth-Moon system and is found to compare favorably with previous techniques applied to the same project. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
