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
Mechanical properties of concretes highly depend on aggregate inclusions. In-depth understandings of concrete fracture mechanisms and how aggregates influence the behaviours of concretes are crucial to applications. This paper highlights a systematic investigation on the effects of aggregate size and volume fraction on concrete fracture and mechanical behaviours by means of discrete element modelling (DEM). The present revealed the relations between the observable cracking in experiment with the interior stress distributions and crack growth, explored the fracture mechanism in terms of crack growth rate, and clarified the effect of aggregate size and volume fraction on the mechanical and fracture behaviours of concretes. The results of this study will subsequently navigate the design of fracture-resistant concrete materials.
