Journal Guide

Data Science for Transportation publishes high-quality original research and reviews in a wide range of topics related to Data Science for Transportation. This includes classical approaches when data sources are used to unravel underlying physical mechanisms leading to general laws and new modelling frameworks. It also includes new data-driven approaches when AI plays a central role.

The goal of the journal is to showcase the latest methodological advances and applications of data science methods in transportation and appropriate implications for policy making. The journal is also interested in the significant impact that these fields are beginning to have on other scientific disciplines as well as many aspects of society and industry. There are countless opportunities where big data intelligence can augment other methods in transportation systems planning, operations, freight, safety analysis, transit, safe and sustainable cities and emergency management. There are many emerging questions of relevance on ethical, social and privacy, that are also relevant in this domain. The focus is primarily on analytical data driven methods. High quality application based studies will also be considered.

Acta Borealia is a multi-disciplinary scientific journal for cultural studies. The journal presents results from basic research on northern societies, including reviews of new books about the north. The contributing authors are mainly from the Nordic countries, but also from other countries performing research on circumpolar societies. The journal publishes articles in such disciplines as history, archaeology, social anthropology, ethnography, geography and linguistics.Acta Borealia is edited by a group of scholars at the University of Troms , and is the only journal dedicated exclusively to a multidisciplinary, comparative focus on circumpolar societies.Topics of primary concern areethnic relations settlement patterns and developments economy political, cultural and social phenomena from prehistoric times to the recent past.Articles and book reviews are published in English.

Casopis je utemeljen 1925. godine pod nazivom Acta Botanica Instituti Botanici Regalis Universitatis Zagrebensis. Pod nazivom Acta Botanica Croatica izlazi od 1957. godine.Objavljuje izvorne znanstvene radove iz botanike, algologije, mikologije, bakteriologije i biljne virologije (floristika, taksonomija, ekologija, citologija, fiziologija, citogenetika, molekularna biologija, paleobotanika). Objavljuje rezultate istraživanja na kopnu (u nizinskim i krškim podrucjima), u kopnenim vodama, te u Jadranskom i Sredozemnom moru.Casopis ima medunarodno uredništvo i medunarodnu recenziju rukopisa pisanih iskljucivo na engleskom jeziku. Od 2000. godine Acta Botanica Croatica izlazi dvaput godišnje (jedan volumen, dva broja).AGRICOLA, BIOSIS, CAB International, EBSCO Publishing, BIOBASE, Current Awareness in Plant Science, Scopus, Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Zoological Records, Web of Science – Science Citation Index expanded.

Acta Botanica Hungarica publishes papers by scientists of Hungary and of surrounding countries working on the topics listed below. Studies by foreign researchers written in the framework of international projects and cooperations are also welcome. Main subjects: plant anatomy and histology, cryptogam and phanerogam taxonomy, molecular phylogeny, plant geography, plant sociology, vegetation science, tropical botany, ethnobotany, paleobotany and palynology. Publishes book reviews and advertisements.

Acta Botanica Brasilica (Acta bot. bras.) publishes original articles on all aspects of plant (including algae) and fungi biology. The submitted manuscript or its essential content must not have been published previously or be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Contributions should be substantial, written in English and show general interest. Manuscripts that report aspects of local interest are discouraged unless the implications of the findings are wide-reaching. Manuscripts with agronomic subjects are expected to contain a substantial amount of basic plant biology.

Pure metals and metal-based materials form the backbone of engineering and biomedical sectors in context of end products. In terms of properties, they bridge the gap between that of polymers and ceramics and hence have created a niche for themselves over many centuries. In view of the tremendous importance and potential of metal-based materials, this journal attempts to bring forth the recent developments and innovations to all materials where pure metals, alloys or their composites play the key role in defining the properties of interest or as required by end application(s). Accordingly, topics of interest (not limited to) will be as follows:

• Innovation in green technologies for extraction of metals.
• Development of new alloys, metal matrix composites and multicomponent alloys.
• Innovation in primary processing (such as liquid, solid, and two-phase methods) and secondary processing (such as rolling, extrusion, and forging) methods.
• Progress in severe plastic deformation methods and their use in enhancing properties.
• Advances in microstructural characterization techniques.
• Insights and improvement in properties such as physical, thermal, mechanical, high temperature and tribological response.
• Numerical simulation and atomistic modelling related to processing, alloys development and properties prediction.
• Corrosion characteristics of new materials and protection methods.
• Progress in joining of metal-based materials including composites.
• Progress in machining of metal-based materials.
• Recycling of metal-based materials for environmental conservation.
• Emerging applications of metal-based materials.
• Case studies of qualification of metallic materials for applications.
• Case studies on failure of metallic materials.
• Additive Manufacturing of Metallic Materials
• Development of Biomedical Metallic Materials
• Smart Metallic Materials such as Shape Memory of Magnetic Alloys

Acta Chimica Slovenica (ACSi) provides a forum for the publication of original and significant work in the chemical and closely related areas of research. Reviews, scientific and technical articles, and short communications are welcome.

Acta Chirurgica Belgica (ACB) is the official journal of the Royal Belgian Society for Surgery (RBSS) and its affiliated societies. It publishes Editorials, Review papers, Original Research, and Technique related manuscripts in the broad field of Clinical Surgery. Experimental studies are considered when the results have a clear translational clinical value. Topical correspondence on the published content is welcome.

This journal subscribes to the recommendations for the Conduct, Reporting, Editing, and Publication of Scholarly Work in Medical Journals put forward by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
