This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 73. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 October 2025.
All research outputs
#746,459
of 34,378,656 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical & Engineering Sciences
#97
of 2,587 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#17,664
of 461,134 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical & Engineering Sciences
#3
of 63 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,378,656 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,587 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 461,134 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 63 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
