Academic publisher Maney Publishing, UK, recently celebrated 25 years of publication of two leading journals - Materials Science and Technology and Surface Engineering. The journals are published by Maney on behalf of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3).
Materials Science and Technology publishes refereed contributions covering both fundamental and technological aspects of the properties, characterisation and modelling, processing, and fabrication of engineering materials. The journal has a particular interest in the continuum from understanding and modelling of process routes leading to the generation of microstructure, through characterisation, understanding and modelling of how microstructure is controlled and manipulated, to the modelling, control and prediction of relevant engineering properties.
Surface Engineering provides a forum for the publication of international, peer reviewed material on this important enabling technology. The journal embraces science, technology, engineering and design aspects of the use of surface engineering to produce cost-effective substrate-surface systems having functional, mechanical, tribological and/or chemical properties that cannot be achieved from the individual components alone. Coverage includes, inter alia, design, surface modification technologies and process control, and the characterisation and properties of the system or component, including quality control and non-destructive examination.
