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 hydriding corrosion is harmful to the long-term storage of plutonium (Pu). Since the defect-free PuO 2 overlayer has been proved to resistance hydrogen attack, Pu hydriding is mainly related to such penetrating defects as the grain boundaries (GBs) of PuO 2. We perform comprehensive DFT+ U -D3 calculation and tensile-test simulation to investigate the incorporation and dissolution behaviors of H in PuO 2 GB, and the induced hydrogen damage. The exothermic incorporation and dissolution of H confirm the capture effect of PuO 2 GB, which are contrary to endothermic behaviors of H in PuO 2 bulk. The predicted saturation solubility of H demonstrates that GB is the active site that promotes H dissolution, which is one of the important factors to Pu hydriding. The dissolved H can further weaken the Pu–O bonds in GB and facilitate the intergranular fracture of PuO 2 overlayer. Our study provides key mechanistic insights towards interpreting of Pu hydriding corrosion, which is critical for predictive modeling of the induction time.
