About the journal
|
The Journal of Computer-Aided Materials Design provides a communications forum at the intersection of computational materials research with materials technology. Its primary functions are:
- To inform the scientific community of advances in materials modeling across a spectrum of length and time scales, particularly emphasizing the interplay between theory, simulation, and experiment.
- To stimulate the investigation of multiscale physics, chemistry, and mechanics in understanding and utilizing materials phenomena on the electronic structure, atomistic, microstructural, and continuum levels.
- To promote exchanges between traditionally separate communities and organizations in academia, industry, and government laboratories within the expanding domains of materials research and development.
Original contributions and invited perspectives dealing with any aspect of materials design consistent with the stated aims. Within this scope manuscripts on the following topics are particularly welcomed:
- Theory and simulation of materials based on electronic-structure calculations, atomistic simulations such as molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo, microstructure-level techniques such as finite-element methods, and continuum equations.
- Technology-driven projects where the interplay between experiments and modeling is crucial to success.
- Linking different techniques of materials modeling across length and time scales.
- Addressing issues of performance and degradation of materials systems, lifetime extensions, and environmental interactions through modeling and simulation.
- Advances in parallel computing and scientific visualization relevant to materials design as a multidisciplinary enterprise.

Instructions to Authors
A broad spectrum of papers dealing with all aspects of computer-aided materials design is welcomed. Full-length papers, short communications, perspectives and review articles are accepted. Only unpublished contributions, not under consideration elsewhere, are accepted.
The manuscript (original plus three copies and diskette) should be sent to (via e-mail or postal mail): Prof. Sidney Yip
77 Mass. Ave.,
Cambridge, MA 02139
U.S.A.
Fax: 617-258-8863
syip@mit.edu
Any data which facilitate the refereeing process are welcome. All manuscripts must be accompanied by a diskette or the files; after revision, a diskette should contain the final, accepted version of the manuscript. IBM MS-DOS and Macintosh disk formats can be handled. Details on the software used should be provided. Microsoft WORD or LaTeX are preferred, but any common microcomputer wordprocessing system is acceptable. Separate EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) files of the figures should accompany the manuscript.
Preparation of Manuscripts
Manuscripts for full-length papers should conform to a sectional format, normally including Title, Summary, Keywords, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusions, Acknowledgements and References. Manuscripts for short communications should not be sectionalized, and the length should not exceed 4 printed pages including figures, tables and references. Each short communication should be accompanied by an abstract identifying in less than 100 words the major observation reported. Perspectives are restricted to commentaries on topics of significance or interest to materials designers. Review Papers should be critical reviews, the length of which will depend on the subject. The type of publication, i.e., Original Paper, Short Communication, Perspective or Review Paper should be indicated.
Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced, on one side only with wide margins. Manuscript pages should be numbered consecutively, including references, figure captions and tables, which should be grouped in this sequence following the text. The original manuscript should include the original graphs, drawings and structural formulas placed at the end. Authors should indicate in the text or by marginal notations where they are to be inserted. Diagrams in the duplicate copies of the manuscript may be photoprints or rough drawings. A signed copyright transfer form (see further) should accompany all manuscripts.
The Title page should also contain the authors?first names and surnames, the address(es) where the work was carried out, as well as the complete mailing address, including telephone and telefax numbers, of the corresponding author. The Title should be brief but informative (without formulas or other symbols). The Summary should outline the reason for the work, the experimental approach, the significant results and conclusions (avoiding abbreviations, diagrams and references to other papers). A list of 36 Keywords not in the title should be provided. The Introduction should show why the work was done. Well-known Methods should either be designated by name or by literature reference. Experimental Results should be clearly and logically presented. The Discussion should follow as a separate section.
References should be numbered consecutively throughout the text and supplied as a separate Reference list at the end. Articles 抜n press?may be included in the reference list; citations of unpublished data or personal communications should appear only in the text parenthetically. Literature references should be arranged and punctuated as shown, using Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index 1907-984 Cumulative and its supplements:
- Journal: Grootenhuis, P.D.J. and Karplus, M., J. Comput.-Aided Mol. Design, 10 (1996) 1.
- Book: Clementi, E. (Ed.) MOTECC-91, Modern Techniques in Computational Chemistry, ESCOM, Leiden, The Netherlands, 1991.
- Book chapter: Ji, J. and Pettitt, B.M., In Van Gunsteren, W.F., Weiner, P.K. and Wilkinson, A.J. (Eds.) Computer Simulation of Biomolecular Systems: Theoretical and Experimental Applications, Vol. 2, ESCOM, Leiden, The Netherlands, 1993, pp. 67-81.
For multi-author references, all authors must be named and initials given in the reference list, although the use of e.g., Doe et al., is desirable in the text.
Figures and Graphs should be provided as EPS files and as high-quality originals or glossy prints. Submission of poor-quality figures may delay publication. Black and white photographic illustrations should be submitted unmounted, as sharp prints on glossy paper. Color figures should be supplied as EPS files (or as 35 mm positive slides), accompanied by color prints for identification and orientation.
All illustrations should be marked in the margin or on the back with the name of the author and brief title of the paper. Indicate the top of all photographs and line drawings. Figures should be numbered consecutively using arabic numerals. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.
Tables should be typed on separate sheets, double-spaced, and numbered consecutively with arabic numerals, without vertical lines. A short descriptive title should appear above each table with any explanation or footnote (identified with a, b, c, etc.) below. Column headings should be explanatory and carry units.
Units, Symbols and Nomenclature. SI units should be used. All nomenclature should be consistent, conforming to the recommendations of the international Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, International Union of Biochemistry, and other appropriate bodies.
Proofs will be sent to the corresponding author by e-mail (if no e-mail address is available or appears to be out of order, proofs will be sent by regular mail).
Your response, with or without corrections, should be sent within 72 hours. Please do not make any changes to the PDF file. Minor corrections (+/- 10) should be sent as an e-mail attachment to: proofscorrection@wkap.nl. Always quote the four-letter journal code and article number and the PIPS No. from your proof in the subject field of your e-mail. Extensive corrections must be clearly marked on a printout of the PDF file and should be sent by first-class mail (airmail overseas).
Only serious changes in interpretation or correction of data are permitted. Authors may be charged for excessive alterations.
Copyright. Under the provisions of U.S. copyright law, the transfer of copyright from author to publisher, heretofore implicit in the submission of a manuscript, must now be explicitly transferred to enable the publisher to ensure maximum dissemination of the author憇 work. A copyright transfer form will accompany the galleys and should be signed and returned to the publisher with the proofs. Authors quoting from the work of others or reproducing illustrations or tables from any book or journal should ensure that the copyright is not infringed. Permission should be obtained from the copyright holder if substantial extracts are to be reproduced and acknowledgement of any borrowed material must always be made.
Color. The use of color is permitted. Special rates are available for researchers from academic institutions. Please contact the publisher for a quotation.
Page charges. There are no page charges to publish in this journal.
Reprints. Fifty free reprints will be supplied for any contribution that does not have color and for articles containing color if the author has contributed to the color costs (it is not possible to provide black and white reprints of an article printed in color). A reprint order form will be sent to the corresponding author with the proofs which has to be returned to get any (also the free) reprints. The minimum reprint order is 100 copies.
