SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing

Our screening does not flag SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing. 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 Scopus, Web of Science, which is a positive signal.

Per our venue index, SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing appears in: Scopus, Web of Science. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

Papers in SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing are cited about 2.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 36. 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, SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing is Q3 in 1 of its 3 subject categories and Q4 in the other 2. By category: Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering: Q3, #291 of 398; Mechanics of Materials: Q4, #348 of 412; Mechanical Engineering: Q4, #566 of 696. Its best category quartile is Q3. 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; SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing is cited about 2.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 36.

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 SAE International Journal of Materials and Manufacturing. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q3 in Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering, 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 "subscription". 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.
