An International Journal and Program Library for Computational Physics Visit the International Computer Program Library on Mendeley Data. Computer Physics Communications publishes research papers and application software in the broad field of computational physics; current areas of particular interest are reflected by the research interests and expertise of the CPC Editorial Board. The focus of CPC is on contemporary computational methods and techniques and their implementation, the effectiveness of which will normally be evidenced by the author(s) within the context of a substantive problem in physics. Within this setting CPC publishes two types of paper. Computer Programs in Physics (CPiP)These papers describe significant computer programs to be archived in the CPC Program Library which is held in the Mendeley Data repository. The submitted software must be covered by an approved open source licence. Papers and associated computer programs that address a problem of contemporary interest in physics that cannot be solved by current software are particularly encouraged. Computational Physics Papers (CP) These are research papers in, but are not limited to, the following themes across computational physics and related disciplines. mathematical and numerical methods and algorithms; computational models including those associated with the design, control and analysis of experiments; and algebraic computation. Each will normally include software implementation and performance details. The software implementation should, ideally, be available via GitHub, Zenodo or an institutional repository. In addition, research papers on the impact of advanced computer architecture and special purpose computers on computing in the physical sciences and software topics related to, and of importance in, the physical sciences may be considered. The introduction to each paper should be directed to a general audience and the author(s) must clearly articulate the novelty and significance of the paper and how it will advance the solution of an important physics application. Papers which, in the opinion of a Principal Editor, fail to do this will not be sent for review. The editor may consult with experts in the field in making this decision. Feature Articles are solicited by invitation and are aimed at highlighting topical subjects and providing reviews of important bodies of research work. Special and thematic issues are published on an occasional basis and enquiries should be directed to a member of the CPC Editorial Board. If this journal is a good fit for your review article, you can find out more via the Guide for Authors. For further information or help, please visit the journal article support center.

Computers & Fluids

ISSN: 0045-7930
5 Year impact factor: 3
Impact factor: 2.8

Computers & Fluids is multidisciplinary. The term 'fluid' is interpreted in the broadest sense. Hydro- and aerodynamics, high-speed and physical gas dynamics, turbulence and flow stability, multiphase flow, rheology, tribology and fluid-structure interaction are all of interest, provided that computer technique plays a significant role in the associated studies or design methodology. Applications will be found in most branches of engineering and science: mechanical, civil, chemical, aeronautical, medical, geophysical, nuclear and oceanographic. These will involve problems of air, sea and land vehicle motion and flow physics, energy conversion and power, chemical reactors and transport processes, ocean and atmospheric effects and pollution, biomedicine, noise and acoustics, and magnetohydrodynamics amongst others. The development of numerical methods relevant to fluid flow computations, computational analysis of flow physics and fluid interactions and novel applications to flow systems and to design are pertinent to Computers & Fluids. Benchmark solutions are also within the scope of the journal and will be published in dedicated issues. Policy statement on validation and numerical accuracy: Computers & Fluids will reject all manuscripts that do not report results with the required assessment of accuracy. The following items should be discussed and supported by adequate data and/or references: Statement of the physical model and flow configuration: both the governing equations, boundary conditions and geometry and governing dimensionless numbers (Reynolds number, Mach number...) should be clearly explicated in such a way that readers may reproduce the results. Statement of numerical methods: they should be described in a clear way, including boundary conditions and initial conditions. Formal order of accuracy should be given. Methods should be at least second-order accurate in space for spatially smooth solutions, locally first-order accurate methods being appropriate for flows with discontinuities (e.g. shocks). Statement of code verification activities: numerical implementation of the numerical schemes and algorithms should have been verified, e.g. using analytical solutions, manufactured solutions or highly accurate benchmark solutions. Spatial, temporal and iterative convergence of the presented results should be asessed in the manuscript. Grid convergence must be proved considering several computational convergence with respect to the number of degrees of freedom should be assessed. Iterative convergence should be proved for steady-state results plotting residual evolution. Temporal convergence should be proved considering several values of the time step. Benchmark solutions and dedicated speical issues: Benchmark solutions are important tools in CFD to assess the accuracy of new numerical method and to validate practical implementation. Since benchmark solutions do not bring new insight into flow physics and they do not correspond to presentation of a new numerical method, they will be published in dedicated special issues. Authors should submit them adequately. It is important noting that articles presenting a benchmark solution should fulfill all following mandatory requirements: Article must be submitted by authors from at least two different institutions. The flow configuration should be exhaustively detailed and parameterized by usual dimensionless parameters (Reynolds number, Mach number, angle of attack...). The paper should present results associated to a parametric exploration of at least one configuration parameter (Reynolds, Mach...). The selected range(s) of variation should encompass at lest one bifurcation in flow topology or flow dynamics (e.g. appearance of flow separation, rise of additional characteristic frequencies...) and the associated critical value(s) of the governing parameter(s) must be carefully determined. It is emphasized that new proposed benchmark solutions should significantly increase the confidence into numerical methods capabilities. Therefore, simple variations about already existing text cases will not be accepted. At least three different numerical methods should be used and compared on all figures/tables. Simple comparisons of numerical options available in commercial CFD tools and widely used open source solvers will not be accepted. In the case some results already exist for some test cases presented in the manuscript, a related exhaustive reference list should be given and associated data used for comparision. The benchmark solutions should be free of any physical modelling uncertainty. Therefore, turbulence model or other semi-empirical physical models should not be used. Grid convergence should be assessed considering at least four resolution levels. For gridless and stohastic methods, four refinement levels in terms of number of degrees of freedom should be presented. The manuscript should provide the reader with tables and plots displaying values of relevant and useful physical quantities versus (i) grid resolution/number of degrees of freedom and (ii) flow parameters in the selected range of variation. Authors are also strongly encouraged to provide full data set in text format that will be made available as supplementary materials. Authors are free to propose benchmark solutions. In the case several submitted papers under review deal with the very close test cases, authors will be asked to converge on a set of test cases and to re-submit a common paper.

Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science

ISSN: 1359-0294
5 Year impact factor: 7.6
Impact factor: 8.9

Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an International Journal focused molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces encountered in materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications. COCIS is not a primary journal; rather, it seeks to guide the researcher through the maze of recently published literature, critically analyses the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks, unsolved issues and proposes future developments. The Journal highlights areas and papers which, in the opinion of the Editors and the Section Editors, are of special interest and significance. The scope of COCIS is divided in five Sections that include subtopics as listed below: Colloid components and colloidal materials (surfactants, polymers and polyelectrolytes, emulsions and microemulsions, self-assembly) Biological systems, medicine and health (biological colloids and interfaces, drug delivery, food colloids, cosmetics) Films and charged systems (electrokinetics, thin liquid films and foams, wetting and spreading) Colloidal systems for energy and environmental technologies (energy and energy storage, environmental technologies) Advanced methodologies (microscopy methods, NMR, rheology, surface analysis techniques, surface forces, x-ray, light and neutron scattering, theory and simulation) In addition, COCIS publishes "hot topic" special issues focused on emerging or timely topics. For each of the above areas, Section Editors are appointed, who commission expert scientists to write informed and critical articles on a selected topic. COCIS articles are not intended to be comprehensive compilations of the relevant literature, but are rather personal articles by the invited contributor(s), which aim to inform the reader of the major developments in the area, and to identify those papers which have made the greatest impact on the field, and open new perspectives. Normally, the period covered by the review concerns the previous five years. This is a Current Opinion journal, a series of established invite-only review journals that offer authoritative, systematic synthesis of emerging and hot topics. You can find more information on Current Opinion titles here.
