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: 1.7 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: 1.4 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: 0.6 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: 0.00072 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: 0.43 SJR: 0.318 SNIP: 0.568 CiteScore™:: 3.5 H-Index: 28

ABSTRACT

Thermal stability in a layer of a double-diffusive ferrofluid rotating about an axis orthogonal to the layer in the direction of gravity saturated by a porous medium for the stress-free boundaries is investigated by nonlinear analysis. A rigorous nonlinear stability result is derived by introducing a generalized energy functional. A comparison with the linear instability theory shows that there is a considerable difference between the critical values of magnetic thermal Rayleigh numbers and thus indicates the possibility of subcritical instabilities. However, it is noted that, in case of non-ferrofluid, the global nonlinear stability Rayleigh number is exactly the same as that for linear instability. For lower values of magnetic parameters, this coincidence is immediately lost. The effect of the magnetic parameter, M3, solute gradient, Sf, Taylor number, TA1, and Darcy number, Da, on the sub-critical instability region have also been analyzed. We also demonstrate coupling between the buoyancy and magnetic forces in the nonlinear energy stability analysis.
