  • Wear

    • ISSN: 0043-1648
    An International Journal on the Science and Technology of WearWEAR journal is dedicated to the advancement of fundamental and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. WEAR is seeking high-quality manuscripts with a high degree of novelty and significance. Routine studies or work that resemble slight variations to previous studies will not be considered for WEAR. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, WEAR embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications will result in rejection.Submission... are invited on such subjects as:(a) Wear modelling and validation. This includes modelling of fundamental mechanisms as well as the modelling of tribosystems. Approaches may employ contact mechanics, frictional considerations and lubrication concepts in the development of the model, and must always include physical validation of the model by experiments. Also, approaches that use machine learning on tribological test data.(b) The development and use of new wear testing methods and standards. This includes the rationale behind their development (including a critique of existing test methodologies where appropriate).(c) New wear diagnostic tools. The need for these tools and examples of their use in either basic research or engineering should be illustrated. In-situ or real time sensing and/or imaging of tribological interfaces including optical image recognition.(d) The development of wear-resistant materials, coatings, or surface treatments. Such papers should include, for example, benchmarking against materials currently employed in targeted engineering applications, or presenting a basic hypothesis underlying the work that can be validated as an advance over the current state-of-the-art. The criteria used to select the test methods employed (and the conditions under which those tests were conducted) must be robustly justified with regard to the longevity of the targeted tribosystems in engineering applications. This includes the current or desired wear rate of such applications in comparison of the wear rates measured by the chosen experimental set-up. The proposed mechanisms of wear must be shown as results and discussed in the context of validated data and observations that support those conclusions.(e) Relationships between the composition, structure, properties, and processing of materials and their wear behavior. Such submissions should include the basic rationale for the work, its foundation in prior knowledge, and how the current approach is implemented to explore these relationships. The criteria used to select the tests or analytical methods employed shall be explained with respect to the purpose of the research, be it fundamental or applied.(f) The role of lubricants or other interfacial species in the wear of materials. Such submissions will focus on the mechanisms of wear in the presence of well-characterized interfacial environments.The Abstracts of all submissions, whether a full paper or a shorter communication, should summarize the purpose and approach to the given problem, indicate the materials under investigation, and present the primary conclusions in a brief and concise manner. Any commercialism or product promotion is unacceptable. Submissions to WEAR will be pre-screened before peer-review based on the novelty statement to assess their archival quality, clarity of communication, and the novelty of their contributions to the science and technology of wear.

These may be by invitation, or potential Guest Editors may approach the Journal with a proposal for consideration. Contributions will be subject to peer review in the normal manner.The Journal places no lower limit on the length of manuscripts, provided that they present a complete study, with no undue fragmentation of the literature ensuring that citations reflect a balanced and comprehensive overview of the global research landscape. The Journal will not publish papers which have appeared partially or completely in other journals, which plagiarise other works, or are incompletely referenced. Inquiries, including those related to current submissions and papers accepted for publication and currently in production should be addressed to electrochimica.acta@...
