  • Journal of Fluids and Structures

    • ISSN: 0889-9746
    The Journal of Fluids and Structures publishes original papers on all aspects of the interaction between fluids and solids. Studies of single-physics fluid or solid mechanics problems are welcome too, provided they are motivated by and directly contribute to the understanding of an associated fluid-structure interaction problem.The journal publishes theoretical, computational and experimental studies that provide new insight into the underlying physics and/or present novel methodologies. Studies dealing with specific engineering applications are welcome, provided they address clearly posed questions that are of wider interest, i.e. go beyond mere case studies.Authors must clearly identify the novelty of their work and should provide conclusions that put the specific result obtained in their study into a wider context.Numerical studies must include a clear assessment of associated errors via the provision of suitable mesh/timestep convergence studies; similarly, experimental studies must provide an assessment of experimental uncertainties.The journal has no hard page limits except for JFS Instants (JFSi) but expects authors to provide a brief statement justifying the length of their manuscript if it is close to or exceeds 25 pages (including figures and tables, both embedded in the text, which should be typeset with a reasonable layout, e.g. single-spaced 10 or 12 pt font size and standard font).JFSi papers are maximum 6 pages short, high-impact papers in the field of Fluid-Structure Interactions (FSI) that aim to accelerate dissemination of new and impactful findings in FSI. An example can be found here following the formatting used in the JFSi Latex template.

  • Nuclear Data Sheets

    • ISSN: 0090-3752
    The Nuclear Data Sheets are current and are published monthly. They are devoted to compilation and evaluations of experimental and theoretical results in Nuclear Physics. The journal is mostly produced from Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File (ENSDF), a computer file maintained by the US National Nuclear Data Center.Nuclear Structure Data: Evaluated nuclear structure data for A>20. (Data for A<21 are also contained in ENSDF but published elsewhere.) The evaluations include the best experimental results for various radioactive decays and nuclear reaction studies. The adopted nuclear properties include the following:• Level schemes and excitation energies • Half-life, decay modes • Spin-parity values and their bases • Magnetic dipole moments • Electric quadrupole moments • Disintegration energies • Radiations • Transition probabilities • Band structureDecay schemes, level schemes, and isobaric chains are displayed.
  • Journal of Computational Physics

    • ISSN: 0021-9991
    The Journal of Computational Physics (JCP) focuses on the computational aspects of physical problems. JCP encourages original scientific contributions in advanced mathematical and numerical modeling reflecting a combination of concepts, methods and principles which are often interdisciplinary in nature and span several areas of physics, mechanics, applied mathematics, statistics, applied geometry, computer science, chemistry and other scientific disciplines as well: the Journal's editors seek to emphasize methods that cross disciplinary boundaries.JCP also encourages the submission of papers that develop innovative methods bridging mathematical, physical modeling and algorithmization, e.g. at the frontier between predictive simulation and machine learning. When addressing problems previously covered by other approaches, a comparison should be provided. As for any paper in JCP, the efficacy, robustness, computational complexity, as well as reproducibility should be addressed.JCP also publishes short notes of 4 pages or less (including figures, tables, and references but excluding title pages). Letters to the Editor commenting on articles already published in this Journal will also be considered. Neither notes nor letters should have an abstract. Review articles providing a survey of particular fields are particularly encouraged. JCP does not impose a formal page limit. Authors are expected to present their work clearly and concisely. The handling Editor will assess whether the length of the manuscript is appropriate for the content and may request a shorter version of the submission if necessary. Published conference papers are welcome provided the submitted manuscript is a significant enhancement of the conference paper with substantial additions.Reproducib... that is the ability to reproduce results obtained by others, is a core principle of the scientific method. As the impact of and knowledge discovery enabled by computational science and engineering continues to increase, it is imperative that reproducibility becomes a natural part of these activities. The journal strongly encourages authors to make available all software or data that would allow published results to be reproduced and that every effort is made to include sufficient information in manuscripts to enable this. This should not only include information used for setup but also details on post-processing to recover published results.
