The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.2 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00095 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.28 SJR: 0.341 SNIP: 0.536 CiteScore™:: 1.9 H-Index: 57

ABSTRACT

The instability behavior of a viscoelastic plane liquid sheet in compressible invisicid ambient gas is investigated in the present study. Non-dimensionalized plots of the solutions exhibit the stabilizing or destabilizing influences of various parameters on the liquid sheet. Both spatiotemporal analysis and temporal instability analysis were conducted. The results show that larger Weber number can promote the flow to be convectively unstable. The increase of Reynolds number can decrease the absolute growth rate. The variations of Mach number and elasticity number rarely change the spatial-temporal behavior of the plane sheet when the flow is absolutely unstable. For the temporal mode, when the liquid Weber number is small enough, with the increase of Reynolds number or elasticity number, the maximum growth rate becomes smaller. With a larger Weber number, the increase of Reynolds number or elasticity number can enlarge the maximum growth rate. In addition, it has been found that with the increase of Mach number, the growth rate first decreases and then increases when We = 3; when We = 500, the increase of Mach number can enlarge the growth rate. Note that high Weber number will accelerate the breakup of viscoelastic liquid sheet.
