Engineering Failure Analysis
Published in Affiliation with the European Structural Integrity SocietyThe Engineering Failure Analysis journal provides an essential reference for analysing and preventing engineering failures, emphasising the investigation of the failure mechanisms, identifying the failure's root causes, and proposing preventive actions to avoid failures.The journal covers the following topics: • Comprehensive critical reviews on failure mechanisms such as corrosion, environmentally assisted cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, creep, fatigue, wear, and structural collapse under extreme operation conditions and long-term actions.• Microscopic investigation of failure mechanisms in structural, functional and novel materials, additive manufacturing, electronic and biomaterials. • Failure analysis of engineering components, structures or systems based on material characterisation coupled with computational methods, including bench tests, numerical simulations, artificial intelligence, digital twins and virtual reality modelling. • Case studies detailing failures in major industrial sectors, including renewable energy, emerging fuels, power generation, oil and gas, transportation (aerospace, automotive, railway), mechatronics, biomedical, printed circuits and microelectronics, metallurgy, mining, civil constructions, and manufacturing. • Investigation of public technical safety aspects involved in failure analysis and prevention, including examining regulatory agencies, legal considerations, codes and standards, environmental policies, public safety, ethical issues, and insurance. • Role of engineering failure analysis in the design, materials, fabrication, installation, inspection, operation, maintenance, transportation, storage, life prediction, failure prevention, risk assessment, reliability analysis, forensic engineering, sustainability, service environment, process optimisation, structural integrity, safety evaluation and quality assurance.Finally, a novelty statement is required and should address the following four questions:How does your submission fit the journal's scope? Failure Analysis papers ideally focus on identifying and investigating failure mechanisms, determining the root cause of failures, and proposing corrective actions to prevent future occurrences.Why should your research be considered for publication in our journal?What is the novelty of your submission in relation to the international literature on failure analysis?How does your submission relate to other papers published in Engineering Failure Analysis in the last five years?- ISSN: 1350-6307

International Journal of Fatigue
Published in Affiliation with the European Structural Integrity SocietyThe International Journal of Fatigue aims to publish high quality, original papers that provide new insights into the mechanisms governing fatigue of materials and structures. The emphasis during the evaluation process will be on potential impact of the work, in terms of new scientific findings and substantial advancements to the field.The following aspects of existing engineering materials and structures, as well as newly emerging materials and structures, are of particular interest:Microstruct... sensitive aspects of fatigue crack initiation and growth, including ties to manufacturing processing and defect structures;New, empirically motivated descriptive models or rigorous validation and uncertainty quantification of existing models and codes of practice, in both cases these should be based on large datasets, considering multiple materials and loading configurations;Under... the influence of ?additive? manufacturing and processing route on fatigue performance, and embedding this understanding in more predictive schemes for mitigation and design against fatigue;New experimental findings, which either challenge existing models or are aligned with an extension of their application limits and the associated data pool;Fatigue analysis of materials and structures based on data science, including data mining, data fusion, and machine learning; andCombined and coupled behaviors that affect thermo-chemical-mech... degradation processes under cyclic loading conditions, including environmental degradation, are also included in the scope of the journal.The International Journal of Fatigue encourages papers that identify new mechanisms that enhance the scientific understanding and associate predictions of fatigue, which may include novel fatigue testing and characterization methods, as well as advanced modeling. Papers that openly provide companion algorithms, models, tools, databases, range, and limits of validation are sought. Papers with insufficient novelty, providing test data without new scientific findings or performing routine case studies or finite element analyses, are discouraged.- ISSN: 0142-1123
