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.

Conference Paper Description
For Neill mapping function,there are 26 mathematical operations for hydrostatic component and 11 operations for wet components need to be carried out in order to get the mapping function value. The Neill mapping function model for both hydrostatics and wet component are given in a form of continued fraction. In order to obtain fast results, the mapping function model need to be simplified. In this paper, the nonlinear curve fitting is used to simplify Neill Mapping Function model. Selection of model to be simplified is based on the model ability to reach mapping function value as low as 3 degree of elevation angle. To sum of error shows how close the simplified model result with the original model. The number of mathematical operation can be reduced after the process of simplification of the model. The percentage of reduction of operation for simplified model, especially for hydrostatic component is more than 80 percent.
