Journal's Global Impact Factor Records
![]()
The journal's Global Impact Factor (GIF) is calculated according to the standard formula published by
Clarivate Analytics (previously ISI).
The following is an example for calculation of 2020 GIF.
A = 43 citations (number of times articles published in 2019 and 2018, cited in 2020). B = 81 articles (total number of articles published in 2019 and 2018). A/B = 0.531 (GIF for 2020). GIF for previous years were calculated using similar method and the value is announced in July of the relevant year. The journal was established in 2014. NOTE: Raw data used in this calculation can be accessed from the journal’s citation records by Google Scholar for verifications by third parties.

Properties of Lightweight Foamcrete Strengthened With Cellulose Fibre Isolated From Oil Palm Frond

Abstract
This study concentrates on a laboratory assessment to evaluate the efficiency of adding cellulose fibre isolated from an oil palm bark in lightweight foamcrete (LF)
to improve the strength properties. LF samples were strengthened with 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, and 0.4% volume fractions of cellulose frond fibre (CFF).
There were three low densities of LF were considered, namely 500 kg/m3, 750 kg/m3, and 1000 kg/m3. The parameters investigated were compressive,
splitting tensile and bending strengths. The results indicated that the presence of 0.3% CFF in LF helped to obtain the highest results for bending,
compressive and splitting tensile strengths. CFF acts as a space filler and bridges the gaps and microcracks in LF, resulting in high strength.
In addition, CFF helped to inhibit the micro-cracks propagation in the plastic state of LF. This study provided vital experimental data to assist
future researchers in the field of LF in utilizing natural fibers to enhance the properties of LF.
