A journal of The Franklin InstituteFranklin Open is a new open-access, fast turn-around, peer reviewed journal from the publishers of the Journal of The Franklin Institute that focuses on the fields of engineering and applied mathematics. Focus is on producing high-quality research from all voices in the scientific and academic communities to promote advancements in engineering and applied mathematics.Franklin Open aims to publish high quality manuscripts under such topics as:Complex Networks & Cyber-Physical SystemsControl Engineering & RoboticsEnergy & Power SystemsInformation & CommunicationsData Science & Artificial IntelligenceNeural Networks & Learning SystemsSpeech, Image, & Signal ProcessingOriginal manuscripts and special topic issue are welcome as well as multidisciplinary topics or application-oriented articles, reviews, surveys, and educational articles. Submissions will be evaluated based on their methodological soundness and relevance to the discipline. Upon acceptance for publication, a publication fee of USD 1900 is charged to cover all editorial, production, and archiving costs. Note: These prices are currently waived.All published articles will be immediately and permanently free for everyone to read and download directly via ScienceDirect.Franklin Open is also now indexed in Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)
Measurement: Energy is an open access journal open to original, high-quality contributions from all relevant fields of this highly topical and multi-disciplinary subject.Measurement: Energy is a companion journal to Measurement: Journal of the International Measurement Confederation (IMEKO) . It is one of the journals published by IMEKO with Elsevier.The main aim of this journal is to provide a leading scientific publication platform for the international exchange and knowledge transfer of the latest advances in measurement science, metrology, characterization, diagnosis and condition monitoring in relation to renewable and conventional energy sources, heat and power generation, power transmission and storage, energy efficiency, and related scientific, technological and environmental issues.The journal encourages the submission of manuscripts that provide novel insights and papers reporting recent advances in the field. Topics include, but are not limited, to:Techniques or systems for the measurement of all electrical, mechanical, chemical and environmental quantities in the conversion, distribution and consumption of energyCharacterization, analysis and measurement of gaseous, liquid and solid fuels and fuel blends, including hydrogen, ammonia, natural gas, petrol, diesel, sustainable aviation fuel, marine diesel oil, heavy fuel oil, biofuel, coal, biomass, metal powder, waste, nuclear fuel etc."Diagnosis and monitoring of a diverse range of combustion devices, systems and processes, including internal combustion engines, aero engines, gas turbines, pulverised fuel fired furnaces, fluidized beds, cement kilns, glass furnaces, blast furnaces, grate fired boilers, domestic boilers, waste incinerators, cremators etc.Metrology and measurement of gaseous, particulate, other pollutant emissions and combustion products from all combustion devices, systems and processes, including treatment and conditioning of nuclear wasteMetrology, diagnosis and measurement issues in relation to renewable energy sources, including solar energy materials, solar cells, solar energy systems, onshore and offshore wind turbines, hydropower and tidal wave systems, geothermal energy devicesCharacterization of nuclear materials and monitoring of next generation nuclear power plantsCharacterization and measurement issues in relation to fuel cells, batteries, energy storage materials, networked energy storage devices, energy harvesting devices and systemsMetrology and measurement issues throughout the Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage chain, including flow metering, leakage detection, long term monitoring of storage sitesMeasurement and standards for power transmission, smart grids, gas distribution grids, energy networks, smart energy meteringMeasurement of energy efficiency of electrical machines, industrial processes, buildings, industrial and residential areas, smart citiesArticle TypesMeasurement: Energy publishes the following types of papers, all of which are fully peer reviewed:Regular Articles which should describe original research of high quality covering one of more of the above topics.Review Articles which will generally be specially commissioned; however, suggestions for topics and authors are welcomed by the Editor-in-Chief.Short Communications which take the form of short, self-contained articles highlighting ongoing research, or reporting interesting - possibly tentative - ideas, or comments on previously published research.Special Issue Conference Articles which represent novel work arising from conferences and symposia.
