Impact Factor
The International Journal of Research and Applied Innovations (IJRAI) is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of academic publishing, with a strong emphasis on research quality, integrity, and global impact. In the modern research landscape, citation-based metrics play a key role in assessing the influence and scholarly contribution of journals. Among these, the Impact Factor is one of the most widely recognized indicators.
What is the Impact Factor?
The Impact Factor represents the average number of citations received by articles published in a journal during a defined period of time. It is an important measure of a journal’s visibility, credibility, and influence in the global academic community. A higher Impact Factor reflects not only the quality of published research but also the extent to which it contributes to ongoing scholarly discussions and innovations.
Commitment to Research Excellence
At IJRAI, we strive to enhance the visibility and citation impact of all published work. Our commitment includes:
· Ensuring rigorous peer review to maintain the highest research standards.
· Publishing original and innovative contributions across engineering and extended technologies.
· Indexing the journal in recognized academic databases to maximize discoverability.
· Encouraging interdisciplinary studies that address real-world challenges and emerging technological trends.
Journal Performance and Metrics
To continuously monitor and improve its academic influence, IJRAI evaluates its performance using a range of internationally recognized bibliometric indicators, including:
· Impact Factor – citation frequency of published articles.
· CiteScore – Scopus-based measure reflecting citation performance.
· H-index – an indicator of both productivity and citation impact.
· Other citation-based indicators from indexing agencies and research databases.
Encouragement to Authors
We actively encourage authors to contribute high-quality, original, and impactful research that not only meets the needs of the scientific community but also advances knowledge in engineering, science, and emerging technologies. By publishing with IJEETR, researchers benefit from global reach, higher visibility, and increased opportunities for their work to make a lasting academic and industrial impact.
How the IJRAI Impact Factor Is Calculated
The Impact Factor of 7.824 for IJRAI is derived from a comprehensive analysis of citation patterns using the following platforms:
Google Scholar
· A widely used academic search engine that indexes scholarly articles from across the web.
· Tracks citations across journals, books, theses, conference papers, and more.
The calculation takes into account:
· The number of citations received by IJRAI articles over the last few years (typically the past 2–3 years).
· The total number of citable items (articles, reviews, etc.) published by the journal during that period.
This results in a value of 7.824, which signifies a strong citation performance across the journal’s published content.
