After some conversation with Roozbeh which are "irritatingly useful" :) I found that this site has done already all the calculations we needhttp://www.scimagojr.com/

Some results are attached as a big PDF file. No surprises in the Top positions,

Nature and Science. H=531 and 521, respectively.

Then PNAS is fifth at H=339. Then, a lot of biology immunology and medicine of course, with some physics. We need to go down to rank 227 to find a proper mechanics or materials journal, with Acta Materialia, then 274th,Nature materials with H=235. At 512th, Mat Sci and Eng A.

Actually you can search from the web site. So Engineering miscellaneous is a much smaller file, also attached.  I think the results are quite different from Impact Factor, so if you want to increase H factor, you should follow this list.  Later I further specify the search for Mech Eng.  JMPS is second with H=62, IJSS 8th with H=52!

Nanotechnology and MEMS are by now much better than plasticity subjects and this is reflected by H.

I am also glad to see WEAR and tribology in general to be quite high.

Who does the comparisons with impact factors?  Roozbeh instead of replying immediately do please some work for a change!   :)
