The Journal Structural Control and Health Monitoring provides a forum in which survey articles and original research in the field of structural control can be communicated rapidly toward a cross-fertilization of information and ideas. An important aim is not only to achieve a balance between academic material and practical applications, but also to establish an interface between the many topics which characterise the interdisciplinary nature of structural control. The Journal encompasses all aspects of structural control theory and technology. Special attention will be devoted to civil and infrastructure engineering applications, but related fields, such as aerospace and ocean systems, will also be covered. Review articles and original contributions based on analytical, computational and experimental methods are solicited in three main areas: monitoring, control and smart materials and structures. Each area consists of several viewpoints, and it is from a mutual understanding of these that innovations arise, and this Journal pursues those innovations. Health monitoring, health diagnostics and sensor technology are the core of the first area. Passive, active and semiactive control schemes and implementations represent the second and central field. Shape memory alloys, piezoelectrics and mechatronics in general complete the picture. However, actuator design, dynamic systems, dynamic stability, artificial intelligence tools, data acquisition, wireless communications, measurements, MEMs sensors for local damage detection, optical fibre sensors for health monitoring, remote control of monitoring systems, sensor-logger combinations for mobile applications, corrosion sensors, scour indicators and experimental techniques span across the three areas and represent the backbone of the journal. Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials - Review Articles now incorporatedProviding access to key developments across all areas of structural engineering and related construction materials issues, Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials provides the reader with up-to-the minute, authoritative, comprehensive summaries of the most important and significant advances in the field.

Fifty Key Anthropologists - Articles Related to the Life and Work of Some Influential Figures Medical Anthropology is dedicated to publishing papers that examine human behavior, social life and health in an anthropological context. The journal provides a global forum for inquiring into and elucidating the social and cultural, ideational, contextual, structural and institutional factors that pattern disease, shape experiences of illness and wellbeing, and inform the organization of and access to treatments. Our goal is to bring to our readership work that exemplifies and expands upon ways of understanding biological, cultural, political and economic dimensions of illness, medicine, health and healing. The journal publishes papers that reflect the diversity of contemporary scholarship in medical anthropology, and that demonstrate the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of the discipline. Through the publication of scholarly papers, and the editorials that accompany them, we encourage our authors, and our readers, to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites papers on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity of the field and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers on matters affecting human health, wellbeing and illness. Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone editorial review and rigorous, double-blind peer review.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.
