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
An ab initio linear combination of atomic orbitals method founded on density functional theory is applied to study the structural and bonding properties of vanadium carbide and niobium carbide. We present structural properties, namely, first-principles total energies, equilibrium lattice constants, bulk moduli and their pressure derivatives, together with the x-ray structure factors. Two generalized correction schemes - P86 and PW92 - are applied to treat correlation. P86 gives a favourable ground state compared with the PW92. The computed equilibrium lattice constants and bulk moduli of the two compounds are compared with available experimental data. The x-ray structure factors for a few reflection planes are also reported. Comparison with experiment could be done only for niobium carbide. More refined measurements on x-ray structure factors for both compounds are required. We also present the autocorrelation functions derived from the ground-state momentum density. The electronic behaviour and bonding properties are discussed in terms of absolute and anisotropies in the directional autocorrelation functions. Our findings on structural and bonding parameters are well in accordance with the experimental data. © 2009 The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
