Guide for Authors
Description
The International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture is devoted to advances in scientific understanding of essential mechanics of processes and machines applied to the manufacture of engineering components, mainly in metals, but also in composites, ceramics and other structural/functional materials. To this end coverage is given to a range of topics that includes:
• Essential mechanics of processes involving material removal, accretion and deformation, in solid, semi-solid or particulate form
• Significant scientific development of existing or new processes and machines • In-depth characterisation of workpiece materials (structure/surfaces) by advanced techniques (e.g. SEM, EDS, TEM, EBSD, AES, Raman spectroscopy) to reveal new phenomenological aspects that govern manufacturing processes
• Tool design, utilisation and in-depth studies of failure mechanisms
• Novel concepts of machine tools/fixtures/tool holders supported by modelling and demonstrations that are relevant to manufacturing processes within the journal's remit
• Novel scientific contributions dealing with interactions between the machine tool, control system, software design and processes.
• Studies of specific mechanisms governing niche processes (e.g. ultra-high precision, nano /atomic level manufacturing with either mechanical or non-mechanical "tools")
• Novel approaches, supported by adequate in-depth scientific analysis, addressing emerging /breakthrough processes (e.g. bio-inspired manufacturing) and/or applications (e.g. ultra-high precision optics)
The above list is not exhaustive and papers on other topics associated with process science/technology or manufacturing hardware are welcome. Significant and useful advance of the current state of knowledge is an essential factor and it is important that papers are presented in a manner that will be appreciated by both academics and practising engineers. It is unlikely that papers dealing with theory or modelling alone will be acceptable, unless a significant proven advance in scientific/technological knowledge is demonstrated. Likewise, papers in which the use of methodology predominates over technological advance would probably be rejected. Normally, multipart papers are not acceptable.
Types of Contributions:
Original research papers, in accordance with the journal's aims and scope, reviews, short communications describing concisely novel aspects of technology and having a maximum of five figures, review papers which provide a comprehensive survey and critical analysis of the state of the art of a particular aspect of manufacturing technology, letters to the editor (not exceeding 400 words) which may be criticisms of recently published journal articles, preliminary announcements of important work and comments on current engineering matters of considerable interest.
Note that for the submission of review papers a new procedure has been introduced. Please click on the following link to download the instructions: Guidance for Review Papers
Notices of forthcoming meetings and exhibitions, conference reports and book reviews should be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief
Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible. Research papers should not normally exceed 10,000 words with 40 references, an average of 20 figures and 4 tables (the inclusion of more figures and tables will reduce the word allowance, and vice versa). The abstract, the nomenclature, concise figure captions and references are additional to the length allowance.
Review papers should not normally exceed 20,000 words with 300 references. The Editors reserve the right to require authors to conform to the length guidelines given here.
Short Communications, which are submitted in the same way as papers, concentrate on new techniques, concepts and instruments; they should not exceed 5,000 words with 15 references and simple illustrations may be included not exceeding 5 figures and 1 table.
Submission checklist
You can use this list to carry out a final check of your submission before you send it to the journal for review. Please check the relevant section in this Guide for Authors for more details.
Ensure that the following items are present:
One author has been designated as the corresponding author with contact details:
• E-mail address
• Full postal address
All necessary files have been uploaded:
Manuscript:
• Include keywords
• All figures (include relevant captions)
• All tables (including titles, description, footnotes)
• Ensure all figure and table citations in the text match the files provided
• Indicate clearly if color should be used for any figures in print
• Graphical Abstracts / Highlights files (Mandatory)
Supplemental files (where applicable)
