Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

IJSurfSE publishes refereed quality papers in the broad field of surface science and engineering including tribology, but with a special emphasis on the research and development in friction, wear, coatings and surface modification processes such as surface treatment, cladding, machining, polishing and grinding, across multiple scales from nanoscopic to macroscopic dimensions. High-integrity and high-performance surfaces of components have become a central research area in the professional community whose aim is to develop highly reliable ultra-precision devices.

 Go Top  Objectives

The objectives of IJSurfSE are to establish a channel of communication to disseminate knowledge between academics/researchers and industry practitioners. Because of the multiscale nature of surface science and engineering, IJSurfSE will provide a forum for cross-scale investigations into the property, integrity and durability of surfaces and subsurfaces of advanced elements.

 Go Top  Readership

Disciplines:
Academics; materials researchers; materials, manufacturing and mechanical engineers; physicists in surface analysis; professionals in tribology and surface engineering and related industries.

Scales:
From nanoscopic (e.g. nanoscience and nanotechnology) to macroscopic.

 Go Top  Contents

IJSurfSE publishes original research papers; review papers; technical papers and notes; short communications; discussion on papers; cases studies; special issues on selected topic reflecting important advances in the general field of surface science and technology.
