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: 0.5 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: 0.8 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: 0.2 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: 0.00018 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: 0.11 SJR: 0.286 SNIP: 1.032 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 10

ABSTRACT

A comprehensive technique for calculating the coupled heat transfer of the well and the surrounding rock, taking into account phase transitions (thawing and freezing) and drilling fluid circulation, as well as its thermophysical and rheological characteristics, has been developed. Detailed testing of the developed technique for calculating the hydrodynamics and conjugated heat transfer of the well and the surrounding rock was carried out. The calculated time dependence of the permafrost thawing radius is consistent with the well-known analytical solution, as well as the experimentally observed value of the thawing radius.
