EFM covers a broad range of topics in fracture mechanics to be of interest and use to both researchers and practitioners. Contributions are welcome which address the fracture behavior of conventional engineering material systems as well as newly emerging material systems. Contributions on developments in the areas of mechanics and materials science strongly related to fracture mechanics are also welcome. Papers on fatigue are welcome if they treat the fatigue process using the methods of fracture mechanics.The Editors especially solicit contributions which synthesize experimental and theoretical-computational studies yielding results with direct engineering significance.
Engineering Geology is an international interdisciplinary journal bridging the fields of engineering geology, geomorphology, structural geology, geophysics, geotechnics, geochemistry, and geology. Geological studies must show relevance to engineering, environmental concerns, and safety.Topics of interest include hot-waste storage, groundwater rehabilitation, landscape planning, natural hazards (seismicity, hydrology, geomorphology, subsidence, slope stability), pollution and contamination, and remote sensing techniques including LiDAR.Paper types considered shall be original research articles, case histories, and comprehensive reviews. Case studies, in particular, should emphasize why the paper is of interest to the international readership of this journal, and/or what new or novel research or analytical methods are being presented.The journal is intended for academic scientists, industry and applied researchers, and policy and decision makers.
Engineering Geology Special Publications are a successful and popular series devoted to engineering geology and geotechnical topics, often arising from Working Party reports and activity from the GSL Engineering Group.
EMJ is designed to provide practical, pertinent knowledge on the management of technology, technical professionals, and technical organizations. EMJ strives to provide value to the practice of engineering management and engineering managers. EMJ is an archival journal that facilitates both practitioners and university faculty in publishing useful articles. The primary focus is on articles that improve the practice of engineering management. To support the practice of engineering management, EMJ publishes papers within key engineering management content areas. EMJ Editors will continue to refine these areas to ensure they are aligned with the challenges faced by technical organizations and technical managers. Content areas are described below.
This journal continues to serve the large technical community concerned with quantitative and computational methods of optimization, and their application to engineering planning, design, manufacture and operational processes. The policy of the journal treats optimization as any formalized process for improvement. Algorithms for numerical optimization are therefore mainstream for the journal, but equally welcome are papers which use many of the methods of operations research, decision support, statistical decision theory, systems theory, logical inference, knowledge-based systems, artificial intelligence, information theory and processing, and all methods which can be used in the quantitative modelling of the decision-making process. The engineering dimension is vital. Engineering Optimization aims to serve all disciplines within the engineering community. Relevance to problems of engineering, planning, design, construction and operation is a key element in all published papers. Papers on both research aspects and practical industrial implementations are welcomed. All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.
"Forschung im Ingenieurwesen" - "Engineering Research" erscheint im Einvernehmen mit dem Verein Deutscher Ingenieure. Die Zeitschrift wendet sich an Leser, die einen Überblick über aktuelle Forschungsarbeiten auf grundlegenden Gebieten der Ingenieurwissenschaften suchen. Die Zeitschrift fördert damit den Austausch zwischen den Arbeitsgebieten Forschung und Entwicklung. "Forschung im Ingenieurwesen" - "Engineering Research" is published in agreement with Verein Deutscher Ingenieure. This journal is aimed at those who require an overview of current research in fundamental areas of engineering science. It, thereby, hopes to encourage an exchange of ideas between the areas of research and development.
Engineering Research publishes current research across several disciplines of engineering and technology.
Engineering Research Express (ERX) is a broad, multidisciplinary journal devoted to publishing new experimental and theoretical research covering topics extending across all areas of engineering science including interdisciplinary fields. The journal is committed to fast review and operates a transparent editorial selection and feedback process focused on the scientific rigour of the work, rather than its perceived impact or novelty. The journal is characterized by article length flexibility and a fast-track peer-review process.
