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
Predicting the leakage condition is of primary importance when designing metal-to-metal flanges. The gap between flange surfaces is regarded as a partially open crack with a zero stress intensity factor, then a model based on fracture mechanics is proposed for predicting leakage pressure. An analytical solution was found, with weight function, considering the condition of crack front at the most internal point of the bolt hole. Finite element and experimental tests validated the effectiveness of the model. In addition, the dependencies on the main flange dimensions were investigated and discussed, providing useful guidelines for optimal flange design.
