IOP Publishing has been chosen by a consortium of Chinese partners to publish their new journal, the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing (IJEM).
The new, open access journal will cover the science and technology of manufacturing functional devices and systems with extreme dimensions (extremely large or small) and/or functionalities under extreme conditions or environments.
IJEM is solely owned by the four partners: Institute of Machinery Manufacturing Technology, China Academy of Engineering Physics; Dalian University of Technology, China; Fudan University, China; and Research Center of Laser Fusion, China Academy of Engineering Physics. As a result of funding from this partnership, IJEM will not charge article publication fees, meaning it will be free for authors to publish their research.
Extreme manufacturing is specifically manifested in manufacturing with extremely high energy density; ultrahigh precision; extremely small spatial and temporal scales; extremely intensive fields, and giant systems with extreme complexity and number of factors. It involves multidisciplinary fields, including machinery, materials, optics, physics, chemistry, mechanics, and mathematics.
The journal opens for submissions on February 28, 2019.
