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
NC programs are widely developed and applied to various machining processes. However, the lack of effective NC program optimization strategy for the machining energy efficiency has been crippling the implementation of sustainability in companies. To address this issue, a multi-granularity NC program optimization approach for energy efficient machining has been developed and presented in this paper. This approach consists of two levels of granularities: the granularity of a group of NC programs for a setup where the features are machined on a single CNC machine with the same fixture and the granularity of a NC program. On the former level of granularity, the execution sequence of the NC programs for the setup of a part is optimized to reduce the energy consumed by the cutting tool change among the NC programs. On the latter level of granularity, the execution sequence of the features in the same NC program is optimized to reduce the energy consumed by the cutting tool's traveling among the machining features. Experiments on the practical cases show that the optimization results from this approach are promising and the approach has significant potential of applicability in practice.
