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
High-current pulsed electron beam (HCPEB) irradiation commonly induces crater-like cavities on irradiated surfaces, making them tribologically resemble textured ones. However, the effect of crater-like cavities on the lubricated tribological properties of HCPEB-treated surfaces has not been reported in the literature. This work was aimed at exploring the potential texturing effect of the crater-like cavities. Surfaces with continuous and uniform crater-like cavities were prepared through HCPEB irradiating a 400-nm thick Ta coating that was pre-deposited on polished M50 steel. Their boundary tribological behaviors were studied while sliding in chemically inert, low-viscosity hydrocarbon fuel JP-10 against a SiN ball under 2.0-4.0 GPa. At 2.0 GPa, the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear rate of the polished M50 steel were above 0.16 on average, with large fluctuation, and 1.49 × 10 mm/N·m(a rectangle-like profile of 167.9 μm× 8.1 μm), respectively. In comparison, the HCPEB-treated Ta coating had a stable, marginally fluctuant COF of 0.11 and a near-zero wear rate. Under other higher loads, the HCPEB-treated Ta coating still exhibited a stable COF of 0.11 on average with small fluctuation, and its wear track width was only half that of the M50 steel. The analysis of the wear topographies indicates that the substantial reduction in both the COF and wear rate was mainly due to the texturing effect originating from the crater-like cavities.
