You may be familiar with Journal Impact Factors from Thompson Rueters. Well, in 2013 google released it’s own h-5 index which ranks the journal citations for last 5 years.
Here is google’s list of the ‘top’ 20 metallurgy journals.

4 of my papers in top 10, not bad:)
no Acta and Scripta?
They must not be categorised as a Metallurgy journal, and presumably just miss out from being in the category of materials engineering.
You can find the numbers by searching for the journal title. here
