Industrial Robot

Industrial Robot publishes peer reviewed research articles, technology reviews and specially commissioned case studies. Each issue includes high quality content covering all aspects of robotic technology, and reflecting the most interesting and strategically important research and development activities from around the world. The journal’s policy of not publishing work that has only been tested in simulation means that only the very best and most practical research articles are included. This ensures that the material that is published has real relevance and value for commercial manufacturing and research organizations. Industrial Robot's coverage includes, but is not restricted to: Automatic assembly Flexible manufacturing Programming optimisation Simulation and offline programming Service robots Autonomous robots Swarm intelligence Humanoid robots Prosthetics and exoskeletons Machine intelligence Military robots Underwater and aerial robots Cooperative robots Flexible grippers and tactile sensing Robot vision Teleoperation Mobile robots Search and rescue robots Robot welding Collision avoidance Robotic machining Surgical robots Call for Papers 2020 AI for Autonomous Unmanned Systems Agricultural Robot Brain-Computer Interfaces for Human-Robot Interaction Cooperative Robots Robots for Environmental Monitoring Rehabilitation Robots Wearable Robotics/Exoskeletons.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

External Cites per Doc

Cites per Doc

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.
