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
The fatigue and failure mechanisms of epoxy composites have been researched extensively because of their commercial importance in fields demanding materials with high specific strength. Particulate, sheets, short and long fibers with dimensions in the micrometer and nanometer range are the major fillers which have been studied for enhancing the fatigue resistance of epoxies. The nano and micro scale dimensions of the fillers give rise to unexpected and fascinating mechanical properties, often superior to the matrix including fracture toughness and fatigue crack propagation resistance. Such properties are dependent on each other (e.g., the fatigue properties of the polymer composites have been found to be strongly influenced by its toughness). This article is a review of the various developments in this field and the underlying mechanisms which are responsible for performance improvements in such composites. © 2010 TMS.
