Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences

Our screening does not flag Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, which is a positive signal.

Per our venue index, Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences appears in: DOAJ, Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

Papers in Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences are cited about 1.8 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 74. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences is Q2 in 10 of its 11 subject categories and Q3 in the other 1. By category: Fluid Flow and Transfer Processes: Q2, #30 of 94; Fuel Technology: Q2, #55 of 130; Environmental Engineering: Q2, #87 of 227; Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering: Q2, #112 of 398; Civil and Structural Engineering: Q2, #129 of 418; Computer Networks and Communications: Q2, #146 of 423; Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment: Q2, #150 of 305; Mechanical Engineering: Q2, #195 of 696; and 3 more. Its best category quartile is Q2. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences is cited about 1.8 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 74.

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q2 in Fluid Flow and Transfer Processes and 9 other categories, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.

Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.
