Journal Guide

The Journal of Advanced Transportation is a fully peer reviewed international journal in the general area of transportation. It publishes papers ranging from methodological to descriptive case studies in analysis, planning, design, technology, economics and operations of transport and traffic systems. Transport Planning, Urban Rail and Bus Systems, Air & Water transport, Intelligent Transport Systems, Highway and Traffic Engineering, Transport and Traffic Systems Analysis, and Transport in Developing Countries are some topics of interest.

Founded in 1970, the Journal of Aerosol Science considers itself the prime vehicle for the publication of original work as well as reviews related to basic and applied aerosol research. Its content is directed at scientists working in areas such as physics, chemistry, engineering, applied mathematics, aerobiology, medicine, industrial and environmental hygiene, toxicology, or materials processing.The editors welcome submissions of papers describing recent theoretical and experimental research related to:• The basic physical, chemical and biological properties of systems of airborne particles of all types,• Their measurement,• Their formation, transport, deposition and effects,• Their industrial, environmental and medical applications.Beside originality, a very important criterion for acceptance of a submission is its ability to communicate conclusions of general relevance to a given field. On the other hand, the Journal is not intended to archive data such as environmental measurements from specific geographical regions, unless new methodologies are involved or broadly relevant new conclusions are reached.

To present scientific and technological research results related to the aerospace field, as well as promote an additional source of diffusion and interaction, providing public access to all of its contents, following the principle of making free access to research and generate a greater global exchange of knowledge.

This Journal is devoted to the advancement of the applied science and technology of airborne flight through the dissemination of original archival papers describing significant advances in aircraft, the operation of aircraft, and applications of aircraft technology to other fields. The Journal publishes qualified papers on aircraft systems, air transportation, air traffic management, and multidisciplinary design optimization of aircraft, flight mechanics, flight and ground testing, applied computational fluid dynamics, flight safety, weather and noise hazards, human factors, airport design, airline operations, application of computers to aircraft including artificial intelligence/expert systems, production methods, engineering economic analyses, affordability, reliability, maintainability, and logistics support, integration of propulsion and control systems into aircraft design and operations, aircraft aerodynamics (including unsteady aerodynamics), structural design/dynamics , aeroelasticity, and aeroacoustics. It publishes papers on general aviation, military and civilian aircraft, UAV, STOL and V/STOL, subsonic, supersonic, transonic, and hypersonic aircraft. Papers are sought which comprehensively survey results of recent technical work with emphasis on aircraft technology application.

The Journal of Alloys and Compounds is intended to serve as an international medium for the publication of work on solid materials comprising compounds as well as alloys. Its great strength lies in the diversity of discipline which it encompasses, drawing together results from materials science, solid-state chemistry and physics. The interdisciplinary nature of the journal is evident in many subject areas. Experimental and theoretical approaches to materials problems require an active interplay between a variety of traditional and novel scientific disciplines. In much of the work published in the journal, synthetic and structural studies are combined with investigations of chemical and physical properties of alloys and compounds, contributing to the development of areas of current scientific interest. Papers submitted for publication should contain new experimental or theoretical results. The Journal of Alloys and Compounds provides a unique international forum where materials scientists, chemists and physicists can present their results both to workers in their own fields and to others active in related areas.The journal will not consider topics on casting, liquid alloys, wear, creep, welding, conducting polymers, purely synthetic papers without any properties, coordination chemistry, ionic liquids, catalysis, biochemistry, and organic materials.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Journal of Analytical Methods in Chemistry (formerly titled Journal of Automated Methods and Management in Chemistry) publishes original research articles as well as review articles related to the use of analytical methods in chemistry with particular emphasis on automation and mechanization in analytical, clinical, and industrial environments.

The international Journal of Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis is devoted to the publication of qualitative and quantitative results relating to:- Controlled pyrolysis (thermal degradation) of chemical materials, including synthetic and natural macromolecules as well as lower molecular weight chemicals;- Fundamental studies of pyrolysis processes by chemical, physical and physicochemical methods:- Studies of pyrolysis reaction kinetics, energetics, and mechanisms;- Environmental, geochemical, biological, medical, and forensic applications of analytical pyrolysis;- Studies in high temperature chemistry, including chemical vapor deposition;- Pyrolysis investigations of energy related problems, including the characterization of fossil/synthetic fuels and coal extraction/liquefaction products;- Technical developments and new instrumentation for pyrolysis techniques in combination with chromatographic or spectroscopic methods;- Automation, optimization and standardization of pyrolysis techniques;- Computer handling and processing of pyrolysis data, including library filing and retrieval techniques, and computer matching and advanced pattern recognition techniques;- Analytical characterization of materials by alternative means of thermally assisted degradation, for example, by ozonolysis, hydrolysis, derivatization, or enzymatic cleavage;- Oxidative pyrolysis, including studies in the combustibility and flammability of materials, and the chemistry of flames;- Applied pyrolysis, i.e. the use of pyrolysis methods in the disposal of waste materials and/or in the production of energy or commercially useful chemicals.

The Journal of Applied Biomechanics (JAB), formerly known as the International Journal of Sport Biomechanics, accepts articles that pertain to the applied aspects of human biomechanics in sport, exercise, and rehabilitation. Studies of importance in theory development are also considered. Research examining the effect and control of forces that act on and are produced by the human body is encouraged. Similarly, studies related to modeling and human movement simulation and to the effects of internal and external forces on body structures during skill development and rehabilitation are appropriate for JAB. Equal consideration will be given to studies involving participants of all levels of ability or disability.The Journal of Applied Biomechanics publishes original research reports, invited review papers, and “target” articles on selected current issues in the field. It also contains book reviews, technical notes, an editorial section, and other special features. Individuals are invited to submit manuscripts to any of the journal’s sections. Methodologies used in original research must meet currently accepted scientific protocol.

This journal is a cover to cover translation of the Russian journal Prikladnaya Matematika i Mekhanika, published by the Russian Academy of Sciences and reflecting all the major achievements of the Russian School of Mechanics.The journal is concerned with high-level mathematical investigations of modern physical and mechanical problems and reports current progress in this field. Special emphasis is placed on aeronautics and space science and such subjects as continuum mechanics, theory of elasticity, and mathematics of space flight guidance and control.
