The International Journal of Thermal Sciences is a journal devoted to the publication of fundamental studies on the physics of transfer processes in general, with an emphasis on thermal aspects and also applied research on various processes, energy systems and the environment. Articles are published in English and French, and are subject to peer review.The fundamental subjects considered within the scope of the journal are:• Heat and relevant mass transfer at all scales (nano, micro and macro) and in all types of material (heterogeneous, composites, biological,...) and fluid flow• Forced, natural or mixed convection in reactive or non-reactive media• Single or multi–phase fluid flow with or without phase change• Near–and far–field radiative heat transfer• Combined modes of heat transfer in complex systems (for example, plasmas, biological, geological,...)• Multiscale modellingThe applied research topics include:• Heat exchangers, heat pipes, cooling processes• Transport phenomena taking place in industrial processes (chemical, food and agricultural, metallurgical, space and aeronautical, automobile industries)• Nano–and micro–technology for energy, space, biosystems and devices• Heat transport analysis in advanced systems• Impact of energy–related processes on environment, and emerging energy systemsThe study of thermophysical properties of materials and fluids, thermal measurement techniques, inverse methods, and the developments of experimental methods are within the scope of the International Journal of Thermal Sciences which also covers the modelling, and numerical methods applied to thermal transfer.

The aim of the International Medical Journal on Down's Syndrome (Revista Médica Internacional sobre el Síndrome de Down) is, on the one hand, to gather current knowledge on the medical aspects of Down's Syndrome, and to continuously review and update this, from the most promising advances in basic sciences, such as molecular biology and genetics, to daily clinical practice; and on the other hand, to look at those psychopedagogical aspects, that, due to their relationship with the medical field, could be of practical interest for general and specialist paediatricians associated with Down's Syndrome. The journal will consider publishing clinical or research articles associated with all branches of Down's Syndrome.

The International Review of Economics Education is dedicated to enhancing learning and teaching in the higher education economics community. It provides a forum for high quality research in the areas of curriculum design, pedagogy, assessment, teaching and learning innovation. The journal seeks to promote critical dialogue on educational theory and practice in economics and to demonstrate the relevance of research to good professional practice.Examples of issues that contributors are encouraged to focus on:• How do economics students learn?• What economics should be taught?• What are the constraints in improving economics teaching and learning?• How can current practice be improved?• How is economics taught internationally and what can we learn from this?• How can electronic learning technologies be used to improve student learning in economics?

The International Review of Financial Analysis (IRFA) is a non-affiliated refereed journal whose primary goal is to provide an outlet for high quality Financial Research. The journal is open to a diversity of Financial Research topics and will be unbiased in the selection process. The focus of IRFA is not limited to U.S. centric topics but, as its title implies, is open to value added research output from around the world.The editors deem that Financial Research output exploring a broad spectrum of cultural, spatial, institutional, historical, regulatory, and methodological differences will assist in advancing the core body of Finance knowledge. The intent of the editors is to have IRFA provide a vehicle for the dissemination of international Finance Research ideas and results.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
