Journal Guide

An Official Journal of the Indian Academy of Sciences, SADHANA explores all branches of engineering science, including mechanics, computer science, electronics, energy, aerospace technology, materials science, nuclear engineering, systems analysis, and alternative technologies. All papers are published in English. The journal focuses on papers that are relevant to more than one professional group, either because the work is fundamental or because it reflects the best in current technology. The journal also publishes summaries of special projects of interest to engineering scientists. Lastly, the journal offers critical reviews, with an emphasis on subjects of particular interest in India.

An interdisciplinary and international journal, Safer Communities (SC) publishes scholarly and practitioner-based research on the range of topics that constitute community safety, community justice and youth justice.

Safety & Emergency is an international scholarly journal devoted to promoting and disseminating original research and the latest advancements in safety science, emergency management, and occupational health. It provides a global platform for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and educators from all over the world to exchange cutting-edge knowledge and innovative solutions aimed at improving the well-being and safety of workers across diverse industries. The journal emphasizes the fundamental theoretical research and practical applications in safety, emergency, and occupational health-related fields worldwide. Papers are welcomed on all relevant topic

• A journal in Springer Nature’s Discover Series: Rigorous, representative and wide-reaching. 

Safety Science serves as an international medium for research in the science and technology of human safety. It extends from safety of people at work to other spheres, such as transport, leisure and home, as well as every other field of man's hazardous activities.Safety Science is multidisciplinary. Its contributors and its audience range from psychologists to chemical engineers. The journal covers the domain of safety in its general sense with a special focus on the interfaces between technology, people and organizations. Papers may address the physics and engineering of safety; its social, policy and organisational aspects; the management of risks; the effectiveness of control techniques for safety; standardization, legislation, inspection, insurance, costing aspects, human behaviour and safety and the like.Safety Science will enable academic researchers, engineers and decision-makers in companies, government agencies and international bodies, to augment their information level on the latest trends in the field, from policy makers and management scientists to engineers.The journal focuses primarily on original research papers across its whole scope, but also welcomes state-of-the-art review papers and first hand case histories on accidents and disasters of special significance. The emphasis is on safety risks, as distinct from health risks, but may include both.

Safety and Health at Work (SH@W) is an international, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal published quarterly in English beginning in 2010. The journal is aimed at providing grounds for the exchange of ideas and data developed through research experience in the broad field of occupational health and safety. Articles may deal with scientific research to improve workers' health and safety by eliminating occupational accidents and diseases, pursuing a better working life, and creating a safe and comfortable working environment. The journal focuses primarily on original articles across the whole scope of occupational health and safety, but also welcomes up-to-date review papers and short communications and commentaries on urgent issues and case studies on unique epidemiological survey, methods of accident investigation, and analysis. High priority will be given to articles on occupational epidemiology, medicine, hygiene, toxicology, nursing and health services, work safety, ergonomics, work organization, engineering of safety (mechanical, electrical, chemical, and construction), safety management and policy, and studies related to economic evaluation and its social policy and organizational aspects. Its abbreviated title is Saf Health Work.

Safety and Reliability is the official journal of the Safety and Reliability Society. The broad aim of the Society is to stimulate the development and the use of safety and reliability techniques in high hazard industries for the benefit of society at large. Safety and Reliability is an important component of the Society's work and aims to publish high quality, peer-reviewed papers about safety, reliability and related fields. The Journal publishes best industrial practice as well as research, studies and review papers. The journal also accepts short articles and book reviews.

Safety and Reliability  will be of interest to all practitioners and researchers in safety and reliability related fields. The journal covers, but is not restricted to the following methodological areas:

• Reliability analysis,  assessment, prediction, testing, modelling and techniques
• Safety analysis, assessment, prediction, testing, modelling and techniques
• Risk analysis assessment, prediction, testing, modelling and techniques
• Reliability, risk and safety management
• Reliability, risk and safety methodology
• Safety culture
• Human factors and errors
• Industry case studies

Safundi is a peer-reviewed quarterly academic journal that analyses the United States and South Africa from an international, transnational, and/or comparative perspective and seeks to understand each country in relation to the other. Although new comparative and transnational research forms the core of the journal, Safundi also publishes articles specifically addressing one country, provided the research is of interest to an international audience. The Editorial Board will consider submissions relating to other countries in southern Africa and the Americas, as well as to other parts of the world that allow for broader comparative insights. Articles that Safundi publishes are academic in nature. Intelligent, exploratory essays are also welcomed. We encourage interdisciplinary perspectives on a wide range of topics. The title Safundi derives from the initial letters of South Africa and America and the word fundi, which comes from the Xhosa verb, -funda, which translates as 'to read' or 'to learn'.
