Acta Materialia
Published on behalf of Acta Materialia, Inc.Acta Materialia provides a forum for publishing full-length, original papers and commissioned overviews, and feature articles that advance the understanding of the relationship between the processing, the structure and the properties of inorganic materials. Acta Materialia prioritizes papers that significantly move the field forward, advancing the thinking in the field and providing mechanistic processing-structure... connections. Explorations of such connections by experiment, computation, theory, data science, and machine learning are all welcome; studies that connect across theory, computation, and experiment through mechanistic means are especially relevant.Materials structure at all scales is of interest, from electronic, atomic, and molecular arrangements to microstructural elements, including crystal defects, polycrystalline and polyphase structures, and spanning to macrostructures formed by processing that impact properties and performance. The connection of these structural features to all kinds of properties is of interest, including mechanical and functional properties, thermodynamics and kinetics, phase transformations, etc.Short communications and comments to papers published in Acta Materialia may be submitted to Scripta Materialia.Manuscrip... about materials that fall outside the scope of Acta Materialia or Scripta Materialia may be submitted to Materialia, which is part of the Acta Materialia family of journals.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Structure, Function and InteractionsThe International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is an established international journal of research into chemical and biological aspects of all natural macromolecules.It presents the latest findings of studies on the molecular structure and properties of proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids. These findings must be new and novel rather than a repeat of earlier or analogous published work. The scope includes biological activities and interactions, molecular associations, chemical and biological modifications, and functional properties. Papers on related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments and new analytical techniques are also welcome. All papers are required to focus primarily on at least one named biological macromolecule. This naming should appear in the title, the abstract and the text of the paper.Examples of papers which are not appropriate for International Journal of Biological Macromolecules include: Papers in which the biological macromolecule has not been characterized by modern analytical techniques (including molecular weight) rather than historical methods, e.g. colorimetric assaysPapers that focus on biological, physiological and pharmacological aspects of non-macromolecules attached to, or mixed with, biological macromoleculesPapers on the materials science of biocomposites in which there is no mention of any specific biological macromoleculePapers in which the structure or role of the biological macromolecule is not the major proportion of the studyRoutine studies of extraction of macromolecules without purification and characterization of the extracted moleculeApplications of macromolecules in which the structure of the macromolecule is completely unknownPapers in which the molecular weight of the biological molecule is less than five thousandPapers that are majorly about clinical studies and animal trials, in which a biological macromolecule is not the biologically active agent and/or the biological macromolecule is not the major focus of the studyPapers that focus on genes and genomes with the respective data analysis (including bioinformatics and phylogenetic analyses) without the investigation of the molecular structure of the biological macromolecule and the direct evidence of its biological function
