Journal Guide

One of the most respected archival journals in the field of tribology, the Journal of Tribology publishes over 100 outstanding technical articles of permanent interest to the tribology community annually, and attracts articles by tribologists from around the world. The journal features a mix of experimental, numerical, and theoretical articles dealing with all aspects of the field, including, but not limited to: friction and wear, fluid film lubrication, elastohydrodynamic lubrication, surface properties and characterization, contact mechanics, magnetic recordings, tribological systems, seals, bearing design and technology, gears, metalworking, lubricants, and artificial joints. In addition to being of interest to engineers and other scientists doing research in the field, the information published in the journal is also of great importance to engineers who design or use mechanical components such as bearings, gears, seals, magnetic recording heads and disks, or prosthetic joints, or who are involved with manufacturing processes.

The journal publishes the best technical papers worldwide that advance the state-of-the-art of turbomachinery technology related to gas turbine engines. The broad scope of the subject matter includes the fluid dynamics, heat transfer and aeromechanics technology associated with the design, analysis, modeling, test and performance of turbomachinery. Emphasis is placed on axial and centrifugal compressors, turbines, and their related gas-path technologies.

The purpose of the Journal of Vibration and Acoustics is to serve as a vehicle for the communication of original research results of permanent interest in all areas of vibration and acoustics. Papers published by the journal are full-length Research Papers of considerable depth. The journal also presents Technical Briefs, which are intended to serve as a means for the rapid communication of recent developments in an abridged form.

The Journal of Vibration and Control is a peer-reviewed journal of analytical, computational and experimental studies of vibration phenomena and their control.The scope of the journal encompasses all linear and nonlinear vibration phenomena occurring in the following fields:· Mechanical · Civil · Electrical · Ocean · Environmental · Structural · Aeronautical · Control · Materials · ElectromagneticOriginal contributions, review articles, tutorials and letters will be published based on analytical, computational, and experimental analyses of topics such as, but not limited to:· Vibration and control of structures · Vibration and control of machinery · Vibration absorbers · Signal analysis · Aeroelasticity · Neural networks · Identification · Random vibrations · Structural control · Structural acoustics · Adaptive and smart structures · Noise and noise control · Waves in solids and fluids · Shock waves · Shock waves and sound abatement · Modal analysis · Anti-noise technology · Acoustics: aero, electro, medical, building, auto, aeroplane, underwater · Electromagnetic waves and shielding · Earthquake engineering.

The objective of the journal is to provide a means for the publication and interchange of information, on an international basis, on all those aspects of wind engineering that are included in the activities of the International Association for Wind Engineering http://www.iawe.org/. These are: social and economic impact of wind effects; wind characteristics and structure, local wind environments, wind loads and structural response, diffusion, pollutant dispersion and matter transport, wind effects on building heat loss and ventilation, wind effects on transport systems, wind power generation, and codification of wind effects.Papers on these subjects describing full-scale measurements, wind-tunnel simulation studies, computational or theoretical methods are published, as well as papers dealing with the development of techniques and apparatus for wind engineering experiments.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering publishes manuscripts on research, development and design related to science and technology in Mechanical Engineering. It is an interdisciplinary journal with interfaces to other branches of Engineering, as well as with Physics and Applied Mathematics. The Journal accepts manuscripts in four different formats: Full Length Articles, Review Articles, Book Reviews and Letters to the Editor.

The aim is to publish research of the highest quality and of lasting significance on the mechanics of solids. The scope is broad, from fundamental concepts in mechanics to the analysis of novel phenomena and applications. Solids are interpreted broadly to include both hard and soft materials as well as natural and synthetic structures. The approach can be theoretical, experimental or computational.This research activity sits within engineering science and the allied areas of applied mathematics, materials science, bio-mechanics, applied physics, and geophysics.The Journal was founded in 1952 by Rodney Hill, who was its Editor-in-Chief until 1968. The topics of interest to the Journal evolve with developments in the subject but its basic ethos remains the same: to publish research of the highest quality relating to the mechanics of solids. Thus, emphasis is placed on the development of fundamental concepts of mechanics and novel applications of these concepts based on theoretical, experimental or computational approaches, drawing upon the various branches of engineering science and the allied areas within applied mathematics, materials science, structural engineering, applied physics, and geophysics.The main purpose of the Journal is to foster scientific understanding of the processes of deformation and mechanical failure of all solid materials, both technological and natural, and the connections between these processes and their underlying physical mechanisms. In this sense, the content of the Journal should reflect the current state of the discipline in analysis, experimental observation, and numerical simulation. In the interest of achieving this goal, authors are encouraged to consider the significance of their contributions for the field of mechanics and the implications of their results, in addition to describing the details of their work.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
