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
It is well known that element substitution is vital to an improvement of hydrogen storage capacity degraded by hydrogen-induced disproportionation of zirconium-cobalt (ZrCo) alloy. Contrary to other studies, this work is devoted to investigating the hydrogen desorption behavior of Zr 1-x Nb x Co 1-y Cr y H 3 ( x = 0–0.25 and y = 0–0.125) systems formed by Nb substitution and Nb/Cr co-substitution in the ZrCoH 3 crystal using the first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. Firstly, the preferred positions of Nb and Nb/Cr substitutions are determined through the minimum total energy. Lattice constants and the density of states are employed to characterize the bonding behavior between atoms. The thermodynamic properties of Zr 1-x Nb x Co 1-y Cr y H 3 are also assessed by the enthalpy of formation and equilibrium hydrogen pressure. It is shown that both the thermodynamic stability and dehydrogenation temperature of ZrCoH 3 decrease by increasing the Nb content, which is attributed to the fact that the Zr–H and Co–H binding capabilities are weakened by the presence of Nb. In addition, there are weaker thermal stability, lower dehydrogenation temperature, smaller volume of 8e site, and comparable volume of the hydride after ZrCoH 3 is co-substituted by Nb and Cr, thereby promoting the hydrogen release and enhancing the anti-disproportionation performance. Clearly, both Nb doping and Nb/Cr co-doping possess a positive effect on the hydrogen desorption ability of ZrCoH 3. More importantly, it is discoverable that compared to other substitution systems, the dehydrogenation temperature is the least for the Zr 0.75 Nb 0.25 Co 0.875 Cr 0.125 hydride, highlighting that Nb and Cr co-substitution is more beneficial to improving the dehydrogenation performance of ZrCo-based alloy.
