Fire Safety Journal
An international journal devoted to research on Fire Safety Science and Engineering Official Journal of the International Association for Fire Safety ScienceFire Safety Journal is the leading publication dealing with all aspects of fire safety engineering. Its scope is purposefully wide, as it is deemed important to encourage papers from all sources within this multidisciplinary subject, thus providing a forum for its further development as a distinct engineering discipline. This is an essential step towards gaining a status equal to that enjoyed by the other engineering disciplines.It is impossible to give a comprehensive list of topics which are considered acceptable and the following list is intended for guidance only:• Fire chemistry and physics • Fire dynamics (including gas explosions) • Active fire protection systems, including detection and suppression • Passive fire protection methods • People/fire interactions (physical, physiological and psychological) • Fire safety management • Assessment and quantification of fire risk (including acceptability of risk) • Fire investigation • Fire safety design (including consumer items, industrial plant, transportation, buildings) • Fire safety legislation • Fire safety education.Original contributions relating to any of the above topics are invited, particularly if they incorporate a quantitative approach to the subject in question.- ISSN: 0379-7112
Computers & Industrial Engineering
Industrial engineering is one of the earliest fields to utilize computers in research, education, and practice. Over the years, computers and electronic communication have become an integral part of industrial engineering. Computers & Industrial Engineering (CAIE) is aimed at an audience of researchers, educators and practitioners of industrial engineering and associated fields.It publishes original contributions on the development of new computerized methodologies for solving industrial engineering problems, as well as the applications of those methodologies to problems of interest in the broad industrial engineering and associated communities. The journal encourages submissions that expand the frontiers of the fundamental theories and concepts underlying industrial engineering techniques.CAIE also serves as a venue for articles evaluating the state-of-the-art of computer applications in various industrial engineering and related topics, and research in the utilization of computers in industrial engineering education. Papers reporting on applications of industrial engineering techniques to real life problems are welcome, as long as they satisfy the criteria of originality in the choice of the problem and the tools utilized to solve it, generality of the approach for applicability to other problems, and significance of the results produced.A major aim of the journal is to foster international exchange of ideas and experiences among scholars and practitioners with shared interests all over the world.- ISSN: 0360-8352

Materials Science and Engineering: A
Structural Materials: Properties, Microstructure and ProcessingMaterials Science and Engineering A provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies related to the load-bearing capacity of materials as influenced by their basic properties, processing history, microstructure and operating environment. Appropriate submissions to Materials Science and Engineering A should include scientific and/or engineering factors which affect the microstructure - strength relationships of materials and report the changes to mechanical behavior.Please be advised that the Aims and Scope for the journal has recently been updated. The journal will no longer consider or publish papers on concrete and cement-based systems nor on polymeric and polymer-based materials. In addition, papers with an emphasis on corrosion or wear are discouraged, unless they specifically address novel mechanical behavior or related phenomena.- ISSN: 0921-5093
Journal of Catalysis
The Journal of Catalysis publishes original, rigorous, and scholarly contributions in the fields of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis including thermal, electro-, and photocatalysis for impactful chemistries. We prioritize studies that advance knowledge of catalytic science including the connections between catalytic function and fundamental properties of the reacting molecules, the catalytic materials, and the reaction environment. Such contributions present fundamental and conceptual insights obtained from original data derived from:Kinetic evaluation, microkinetic analysis, and mechanistic studiesComputational assessments of reactive species and complexes Spectroscopic characterization of reactive species and operating catalystsWe also value framework-oriented discussions of catalytic concepts and perspectives informed by examination of existing literature, which are published in the form of pedagogical reviews and perspectives.We aim for Journal of Catalysis to publish evidential articles of enduring value that advance fundamental and transferable knowledge in catalysis and reaction engineering.- ISSN: 0021-9517
