Journal Guide

Welcome to Florida Entomologist, the first long-published, referreed, natural science journal on the Internet. Florida Entomologist is also:the first journal to put its contents on the Internet in PDF format,the first life science journal to have all current and back issues on the Web with free access,the first entomological journal to allow authors to archive supplemental digital material with their articles,the first journal to be freely accessible on BioOneFlorida Entomologist is the official journal of the Florida Entomological Society. Volumes 1-3 were published under the name The Florida Buggist. The Florida Entomological Society still produces the traditionally printed version of Florida Entomologist, but you can also view, search, or print any article published since June 1917 by accessing online files. Web access is made possible by the Society’s electronic publication project begun in 1993 (see below for more details).We encourage you to also view the online files of the Boletín de Entomología Venezolana and Entomotropica, produced by the Sociedad Venezolana de Entomologia.FES members who subscribe to the mailing list, FLORIDAENT-L, will receive the table of contents of each issue as it is published. They will also automatically receive the Society’s Newsletter when it is posted each quarter. See Mailing Lists for details.

Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.Multiphase behaviour: whether purpose-designed, or adapted from single-phase operation, coverage of systems for single-phase liquid and gas flows, multiphase flows having solid, liquid and gas phases, and slurries and pastes is equally welcome.Associated measurements and secondary instrumentation: for example, density, viscosity and secondary instrumentation effects.All contributions are subject to peer review, and additional features include:Review articlesCase studiesLetters to the editorPatent surveysBook reviewsCalendar of events and conference reportsFlow Measurement and Instrumentation is essential reading for instrumentation engineers in the oil, gas, power, chemical, food, water and waste treatment industries, manufacturers of flowmeters, and academics involved in research in this area.

Established in 1948 with the title 'Applied Scientific Research,' Flow, Turbulence and Combustion is today a forum for publication of research that contributes to the solution of problems in flow, turbulence and combustion and related fields. The journal’s audience of readers and contributors spans the international fluid mechanics community. The journal is published in association with the European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion (ERCOFTAC), a collaboration among European universities, research institutes and industry active in the area of applied fluid mechanics, which promotes scientific research on current issues in this area. The journal covers the entire domain of flow, turbulence and combustion, including all flow problems relevant in industrial, geophysical and environmental applications. The emphasis is on solid and original research results, numerical, experimental and theoretical, and their relevance to applied fluid mechanics and combustion.

Fluctuation and Noise Letters (FNL) is unique. It is the only specialist journal for fluctuations and noise, and it covers that topic throughout the whole of science in a completely interdisciplinary way. High standards of refereeing and editorial judgment are guaranteed by the selection of Editors from among the leading scientists of the field.FNL places equal emphasis on both fundamental and applied science and the name "Letters" is to indicate speed of publication, rather than a limitation on the lengths of papers. The journal has recently moved to on-line submission and immediate on-line publication of accepted papers.FNL is interested in interdisciplinary articles on random fluctuations, quite generally. For example: noise enhanced phenomena including stochastic resonance; 1/f noise; shot noise; fluctuation-dissipation; cardiovascular dynamics; ion channels; single molecules; neural systems; quantum fluctuations; quantum computation; classical and quantum information; statistical physics; degradation and aging phenomena; percolation systems; fluctuations in social systems; traffic; the stockmarket; environment and climate; etc.FNL also encourages open public debate. Scientists with critical views about important results published in high-profile journals and magazines are encouraged to submit a comment or note to FNL. These papers are published with an accelerated editorial procedure to facilitate lively debate in the field.

Fluid Dynamics is a translation of Izvestiya Akademii Nauk — Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, a publication of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The translation began with the first issue of the Russian journal.Fluid Dynamics is the leading Russian journal for the publication of theoretical, computational, and applied research in the fields of aeromechanics, hydrodynamics, plasma dynamics, underground hydrodynamics, and biomechanics of continuous media. Special attention is given to new trends developing at the leading edge of science, such as theory and application of multi-phase flows, chemically reactive flows, liquid and gas flows in electromagnetic fields, new hydrodynamical methods of increasing oil output, new approaches to the description of turbulent flows, etc.

Fluid Dynamics Research publishes original and creative works in all fields of fluid dynamics. The scope includes theoretical, numerical and experimental studies as well as data-driven approaches that contribute to the fundamental understanding and/or application of fluid flow phenomena.

Fluid Dynamics Research covers a broad range of fundamental topics in science and engineering in fields and welcomes contributions that pioneer novel ideas and approaches to advance the understanding of fluid flow phenomena and/or develop new applications of fluid mechanics.

Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high quality papers dealing with experimental,theoretical and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluid and solid phases.The fluid phase properties of interest include:PVT, enthalpies, heat capacities, Joule-Thomson coefficients, Gibbs and Helmholtz energies, chemical potentials, activity and fugacity coefficients, critical properties, chemical equilibria, multiphase equilibria and interfacial properties, thermal conductivity, viscosity and rheological properties, and diffusion coefficients.A wide range of pure and mixed fluids may be considered:Non-polar and polar small organic and inorganic molecules, ions, metals, polymers, surfactants, ionic liquids, gas hydrates, complex and biological molecules (e.g. proteins). Fluids should be well-characterized with respect to composition, or be specified with sufficient information for the experimental results to be reproduced (e.g. analysed by up-to-date techniques, or mixtures that can be obtained through a well-established published protocol).Experimental measurements:Unless they are accompanied by contemporary or new theory, papers will be refused if they report experimental data only at pressures and temperatures close to ambient on any of the following liquid or liquid mixture properties: viscosity; density; speed of sound; refractive index; surface tension. Similarly, papers will be refused if they only report phase equilibrium compositions, such as solubilities, at conditions near ambient without theoretical analysis and interpretation.All data reports and analyses will be examined by NIST for consistency with the requirements posted at http://trc.nist.gov/FPE-Support.htmlTheoretical and modeling studies:Theoretical techniques may be chemical thermodynamics, applied statistical mechanics, molecular physics, molecular simulation, quantum chemistry, applied mathematics. Papers with new models, or modifications of available models, are expected to show comparisons for accuracy and predictive ability with applicable data and contemporary existing models.All modeling of properties and phenomena based on artificial neural networks, machine learning algorithms, and similar information processing approaches will only be considered when comparisons of accuracy are made with existing physically-based models or if no thermodynamic models are available. Further, the work must describe the procedure well enough that readers may be able to independently reproduce the results.
