Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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
Defects are ubiquitous in nature, for example, in the form of dislocations, shocks, bores, or impurities of various kinds, and their descriptions are an important part of any physical theory. But the following question can be asked. What types of defect are allowed, and what are their properties if maintaining integrability within an integrable field theory in two-dimensional space-time is required? We consider a collection of ideas and questions connected with this problem, including examples of integrable defects and the curiously special roles played by energy-momentum conservation and Bäcklund transformations, solitons scattering on defects, and some interesting effects in the framework of the sine-Gordon model, defects in integrable quantum field theory, and the construction of transmission matrices. In conclusion, we remark on algebraic considerations and future research directions. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
