Journal Guide

Purpose and Scope:

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics presents top-level work in fluid mechanics and applied physics. Each issue contains valuable contributions on: hypersonic flow, boundary layer theory, turbulence and hydrodynamic stability, free boundary flows, plasma physics, shock waves, explosives and detonation processes, combustion theory, multiphase flows, heat and mass transfer, composite materials, thermal properties of new materials, plasticity, creep, and failure.

The Journal of Applied Security Research: Prevention and Response in Asset Protection, Terrorism and Violence (re-titled from the Journal of Security Education to reflect a more comprehensive focus) is a one-stop resource on security research, education, and training programs that will help scholars, educators, practitioners, and students meet the increasing need for security in the United States. The journal is the official journal of the Security & Crime Division of the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences and is affiliated with the Academy of Security Educators and Trainers and Protect New York -- a new academic organization representing faculty from a variety of disciplines and colleges and universities, including the State University of New York system. The journal presents the latest developments in theory, practice, research, and assessment with an emphasis on up-to-date methods, techniques, and technology. Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by two anonymous referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

JAWER’s paradigm-changing (online only) articles provide directly applicable solutions to water engineering problems within the whole hydrosphere (rivers, lakes groundwater, estuaries, coastal and marine waters) covering areas such as:

• integrated water resources management and catchment hydraulics
• hydraulic machinery and structures
• hydraulics applied to water supply, treatment and drainage systems (including outfalls)
• water quality, security and governance in an engineering context
• environmental monitoring
• maritime hydraulics
• ecohydraulics
• flood risk modelling and management
• water related hazards
• desalination and re-use

Particular emphasis is given to reproducible, innovative methods specifically showcasing studies on interfacing technology-based engineering solutions within the hydro-environment and its ecological values and services which are applicable to a global audience.

Peer Review

All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.

The Journal publishes selected articles from Sibirskii Zhurnal Industrial’noi Matematiki and Diskretnyi Analiz i Issledovanie Operatsii on mathematical research in natural sciences, technology, ecology, medicine, and economics. The publications are devoted to the qualitative theory of differential equations, mathematical simulation in mechanics, technical physics, chemistry, biology, economics, discrete mathematics, mathematical research in the mechanics of solids, mechanics of fluids and gases, mechanics of inhomogeneous media, filtering, management, and informatics theory, problems of discrete optimization and graph theory, development and analysis of algorithms, synthesis and complexity of control systems, coding and automata theory, decision analysis and theoretical scheduling problems, game theory and applications. Mathematical chemistry, biology, and medicine are also well presented in the Journal.

The Journal of Architectural Education (JAE) has been published since 1947 for the purpose of enhancing architectural scholarship in design, history, urbanism, cultural studies, technology, theory, and practice. Published on behalf of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, JAE appears twice annually in October and March, with the October issue being the first of a new volume.

The Journal of Artificial Organs introduces to colleagues worldwide a broad spectrum of important new achievements in the field of artificial organs, ranging from fundamental research to clinical applications. The scope of the Journal of Artificial Organs encompasses to blood purification, cardiovascular intervention, biomaterials, and artificial metabolic organs. Additionally, the journal covers technical and industrial innovations. This is the official journal of the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs.

Research describing instrumentation and methodologies used in atmospheric and oceanic research, including remote sensing instruments, measurements, validation, and data analysis techniques from satellites, aircraft, balloons, and surface-based platforms; in situ instruments, measurements, and methods for data acquisition, analysis, and interpretation; and information systems and algorithms.

This journal contains translations of papers from the Russian-language bimonthly "Mezhdunarodnyi nauchno-tekhnicheskiy zhurnal "Problemy upravleniya i informatiki". Subjects covered include information sciences such as pattern recognition, forecasting, identification and evaluation of complex systems, information security, fault diagnosis and reliability. In addition, the journal also deals with such automation subjects as adaptive, stochastic and optimal control, control and identification under uncertainty, robotics, and applications of user-friendly computers in management of economic, industrial, biological, and medical systems. The Journal of Automation and Information Sciences will appeal to professionals in control systems, communications, computers, engineering in biology and medicine, instrumentation and measurement, and those interested in the social implications of technology.
