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
This paper summarizes an experimental study on the electrochemical characteristics of various mortarcoating-steel systems and on the equivalent electrical circuit modeling for their representative behaviors. Mortar cylinders with uncoated, enamel-coated, and fusion bonded epoxy (FBE)-coated steel bars were investigated in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution up to 244 days using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The microstructure of a mortar-coating-steel system was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the effects of water cement ratio and exposure condition were considered. SEM images showed a thin porous mill scale on the surface of uncoated steel bars, a 150 μm thick coating with air bubbles of enamel-coated bars, and a 300 μm thick coating with air bubbles distributed near the FBE-coated steel bars. EIS results indicated that the frequency ranges of mortar/coating matrix, passive film, and solution-steel interface can be completely separated for specimens with uncoated steel bars, and but not for specimens with enamel and FBE-coated steel bars. Moreover, the mortar-coating-steel systems can be modeled by an electrical circuit that consists of a series of components representing different material layers. The effect of water cement ratio on the evolution of impedance spectra was less significant than the effect of exposure conditions.
