Scientific Journals THE LITHUANIAN SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS 2012 THE LITHUANIAN SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS HUMANITIES 4–10 SOCIAL SCIENCES 12–28 NATURAL & FORMAL SCIENCES 30–36 MEDICINE 38 ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY 40–46 MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES 48–49 2012 During the twenty years since the restoration of independence, Lithuanian scientific journals made an enormous step forward towards greater quantity and improved quality. In this respect, the current decade was especially significant as the best scientific journals of Lithuania became recognised by the global scientific community. Challenges of journal publishing are well known to editors of scientific journals and their assistants. Not to mention the search for financial resources, which became especially difficult with economic downturn, a proper attention must be given for other issues. First of all, to ensure a sufficient portfolio of articles, a journal must be recognised by Lithuanian and foreign researchers of the relevant scientific field. The primary selection of submitted articles aims to eliminate cases of graphomania and plagiarism. As demonstrated by this catalogue, many editorial boards of Lithuanian scientific journals use the CrossCheck screening tool to make sure no analogous or similar article was published somewhere else in the world, which might be unnoticed by editors or reviewers. Although very helpful, screening with CrossCheck takes editors and reviewers only part of the way. It is obvious that Lithuania is too small to guarantee an impartial review in a narrow scientific field. Consequently, articles in languages other than Lithuanian need to be accepted and printed, which necessitates services of a high-level usually English language editor. Without a doubt, all journal editors are familiar with difficulties related to timely performance of reviewers. Such challenges could be easier overcome with the help of a representative and international editorial board of the journal. Still, even once reviews are received, some time should be allotted to article authors to consider reviewer comments. Only then technical staff can proceed with layout design and descriptions for databases. Editors and publishers of numerous journals realised that various issues can be easier and more effectively resolved through the Association of Lithuanian Serials. The Association not only disseminates information regarding Lithuanian scientific journals on the global scale but also assists publishers in resolving practical issues as well as organises qualification improvement seminars and conferences, to which celebrities of the publishing world and representatives of databases are invited. Also, it circulates information regarding globally available platforms for publishing as well as collection and processing of statistical data. Together with other stakeholders, the Association pursues active participation in drafting, discussing and approval of the Code of Ethics for Lithuanian publishers and authors of scientific journals. This Catalogue of Lithuanian Scientific Journals is published in Lithuanian and English. It presents 14 journals from the field of Humanitarian Sciences, 34 — Social Sciences, 13 — Physical Sciences, 2 — Biomedicine, 12 — Technologies, as well as 4 interdisciplinary scientific journals. The total of 79 Lithuanian scientific journals is listed in this publication. The Catalogue will be distributed at international publishing exhibitions and international conferences organised in Lithuania and abroad. Raimundas Kirvaitis President of the Association of Lithuanian Serials The Lithuanian Scientific Journals ISBN 978-609-95241-1-5 © The Association of Lithuanian Serials, 2012 Viršuliškių g. 25-12, LT-05106 Vilnius, Lithuania www.moksloperiodika.lt All journals introduced in the Catalogue of Lithuanian Scientific Journals are peer-reviewed. Information on journals was provided by their editorial boards. The Abstracts&Indexing section alone was supplemented with information from the Ulrich’s (Ulrich’s International Periodicals Directory) database. Note. The CrossCheck marking means that an editorial board of a journal employs the plagiarism prevention service offered byC rossRef. Acknowledgements The Council of the Association of Lithuanian Serials would like to express its gratitude to editorial boards of all journals that partook in this initiative for the especially smooth collaboration.

  • MECHANICS of MATERIALS an International Journal
    MECHANICS OF MATERIALS An International Journal AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Audience p.1 • Impact Factor p.2 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.4 ISSN: 0167-6636 DESCRIPTION . Mechanics of Materials, a journal in the field of solid mechanics and materials, aims to disseminate quality research work in the broad spectrum of engineering and natural materials. It reports original research with a mechanically oriented description of substructures from nano- to macro-scales encompassing time-dependent and time-independent behaviors, material instabilities, damage and fracture mechanisms, and interactions between mechanics and electricity, chemistry and optics. Particular emphasis is placed on the inspection of strain rates, spatio-temporal scales, inception of microstructural features and their evolution, and couplings between mechanics and transport phenomena. The journal also focusses on the thermo-mechanical constitutive response of metals, polymers, soft materials, bio-materials, natural materials, ceramics, metallic glasses, granular materials, composites, shape-memory alloys, nanostructured materials, etc. Mechanics-based investigations on emerging areas such as 3D printing, additive manufacturing, bio-inspired materials, 2D materials, e.g., graphene and thin films, are encouraged. Articles that describe combined experimental/ computational/analytical approaches in the above fields are also of interest. To foster interest and promote discussion among researchers on new mechanics concepts or new material mechanisms, short articles which will undergo fast-track review for rapid dissemination are solicited. Special issues on topical research areas by guest editors, review articles and surveys by experts in emerging research fields are also welcome upon approval by the editorial board.

We believe in the potential of every scientific discovery – what’s published today becomes the foundation and the inspiration for researchers tomorrow. We’re actively working to make the publishing system better for scientists and for science. In 2018 we removed page and color charges from all AIP Publishing journals to reduce barriers to publication. We’re currently investing in a new system for Article Processing Charges (APCs) that will make it easier for researchers to pay for open access publications and will enable institutions who are involved in managing APCs to make payments on behalf of their authors.

  • International Journal of Impact Engineering
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF IMPACT ENGINEERING AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Audience p.2 • Impact Factor p.2 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.4 ISSN: 0734-743X DESCRIPTION . The International Journal of Impact Engineering, established in 1983 publishes original research findings related to the response of structures, components and materials subjected to impact, blast and high-rate loading. Areas relevant to the journal encompass the following general topics and those associated with them: Behaviour and failure of structures and materials under impact and blast loading Systems for protection and absorption of impact and blast loading Terminal ballistics Dynamic behaviour and failure of materials including plasticity and fracture Stress waves Structural crashworthiness High-rate mechanical and forming processes Impact, blast and high-rate loading/ measurement techniques and their applications Manuscripts submitted for publication will be subjected to stringent peer review and assessed for their contribution to scientific understanding of phenomena and the response of structures and materials to impact, blast and high-rate loading. Work resulting in fundamental insights that benefit engineering design to accommodate high-rate loading, is relevant to the journal. Well-designed and well- documented experimental studies that advance knowledge in the response of materials and structures subjected to impact, blast and high-rate loading are of relevance and interest. However, they should be accompanied by analysis of the experimental data and appropriate conclusions. The incorporation of analytical modelling and/or numerical simulations to support the experimental findings, will enhance the depth and quality of the research reported and make it more compelling.
