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
In this study, the possibility of sintering industrial pressed uranium dioxide pellets using microwave radiation for the production of nuclear fuel is shown. As a result, the conditions for sintering pellets in an experimental microwave oven (power 2.9 kW, frequency 2.45 GHz) were chosen to ensure that the characteristics of the resulting fuel pellets meet the regulatory requirements for ceramic nuclear fuel, including the following: a density of about 10.44 g/cm; a volume fraction of open pores of tablets of about 0.1%; an oxygen coefficient of no more than 2.002; hydrogen content of about 0.30 ppm; and the change in density after re-sintering on average no more than 1.16%.
