Acta Adamantum is a broad-scope, diamond open access journal covering the broad field of materials science and engineering. The journal emphasizes original research papers that develop connections between the structure and properties of solid materials. Work that is experimental, theoretical, computational, data-science-centric, or a combination of these methods is welcome. The diamond open access publishing model for the journal is supported by Acta Materialia, Inc., and the number of papers supported for publication in each year is strictly limited. As a result the journal maintains a high level of selectivity and focuses on the most significant advances in materials science and engineering.
Additive Manufacturing Letters is a highly selective peer-reviewed journal focused on rapid time-to-first-decision for short-format manuscripts describing early stage, emerging and/or ground-breaking research in the field of additive manufacturing.
