About the journal
Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing publishes original research papers, review articles,
case studies, short communications and letters from a wide variety of sources dealing with all aspects of the science and technology of composite materials, including fibrous and particulate reinforcements in polymeric, metallic and ceramic matrices, aligned eutectics, reinforced cements and plasters, and 'natural' composites such as wood and biological materials.
The range of applicable topics includes the properties, design and manufacture of reinforcing fibres and particles, fabrication and processing of composite materials and structures, including process science and modelling, microstructural characterization of composites and their constituent phases, interfaces in composites, prediction and measurement of mechanical, physical and chemical properties, and performance of composites in service. Articles are also welcomed on economic and commercial aspects of the applications of composites, design with composites and case studies.
All articles published are subject to rigorous peer review and a high standard is set for both content and presentation. The Editors aim to conduct the review procedure with the minimum of delay so that prompt publication ensues.

All contributions are read by two or more referees to ensure both accuracy and relevance, and revisions to the script may thus be required. On acceptance, contributions are subject to editorial amendment to suit house style. When a manuscript is returned for revision prior to final acceptance, the revised version must be submitted as soon as possible after the author's receipt of the referees' reports. Revised manuscripts returned after four months may be considered as new submissions subject to full re-review.
Submission of a paper implies that it has not been published previously, that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that if accepted it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language, without the written consent of the publisher. Authors are solely responsible for the factual accuracy of their papers. The receipt of papers will be acknowledged.
Types of Contributions
Original high-quality research papers; short communications; letters commenting on recently published papers, on matters of general interest to readers, or on matters concerned with editorial policy. Composites also publishes book review, conference reports and a calendar of forthcoming events. Contributions of this type should be sent to the Publishing Editor at Elsevier Science Ltd (fax: +44 (0) 1865 843982).
Manuscript Preparation
General: Manuscripts must be typewritten, double-spaced with wide margins on one side of white paper. Good quality printouts with a font size of 12 or 10 pt are required. The corresponding author should be identified (include a fax number and E-mail address). Full postal addresses must be given for all co-authors. Authors should consult a recent issue of the Journal for style if possible. Manuscripts should be written in clear and concise English. Spelling should follow the Oxford English Dictionary. Authors whose native tongue is not English are assured that in-house editorial attention to their contributions will improve clarity and acceptability to readers. Please number every sheet of paper. Authors are responsible for ensuring that all manuscripts (whether original or revised) are accurately typed before final submission. Manuscripts will be returned to the author with a set of instructions if they are not presented according to these Notes for Authors. An electronic copy of the paper should accompany the final version. The Editors reserve the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity. Authors should retain a copy of their manuscript since we cannot accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers. Original manuscripts are discarded one month after publication unless the Publisher is asked to return original material after use.
Paper Length: Research papers should be no more than 20 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and illustrations. Short Communications should be no more than 10 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and illustrations.
Abstracts: Approximately 100 words, outlining in a single paragraph the aims, scope and conclusions of the paper.
Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text, Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Figure Captions and then Tables. Standard list of keywords and instructions for use are printed at the back of each issue. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes (except for table footnotes) should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers. Manuscripts should be subdivided in the simplest way possible. The text should usually follow the standard sequence of introduction, method, results and discussion. Headings and subheadings for different sections of the paper should be clearly indicated. Do not number the sections. Ensure that all figures and tables are mentioned in the text, and that all references are cited in number order. Note that trade names should have an initial capital letter.
Keywords: Authors should select a maximum of four keywords from the Keywords List at the end of these instructions. Each Keyword should be accompanied by the capital letter denoting the category from which the keyword has been selected. If authors wish they may nominate one keyword which is not included in the list below. The list of up to four keywords should appear on the title page of each paper submitted for consideration, following the abstract.
Units and Symbols: All measurements and data should be given in SI units, or if SI units do not exist, in an internationally accepted unit. If you use any symbol or unit that may not be generally recognized, please include an explanatory footnote the first time it is used, to help the referees, editors and readers. It is also helpful to identify Greek symbols by name in the margin the first time they appear. Abbreviations and acronyms should only be used for unwieldy terms and names which occur frequently in the manuscript. Abbreviations should be used consistently throughout the text, and must be clearly defined in full on first use. If you use several symbol, a list of definitions (not necessarily for publication) will help the editor. Journal style for letter symbols is as follows: variables, italic type (indicated by underlining); constants, roman type; matrices and vectors, bold type (indicated by wavy underlining).
Maths: Detailed mathematical discussion should be placed in an appendix. Equations and formulae should be typewritten wherever possible. Equations should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses on the right hand side of the page. Type or mark mathematical equations exactly as they should appear in print.
References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. In the text refer to references by a number in square brackets on the line (e.g. Since Peterson[1]), and the full reference should be given in a numerical list at the end of the paper.
References should be given in the following form:
1. Fish JC, Lee S W. Delamination of tapered composite structures. Eng Fract Mech 1989;34(1):43-54.

Illustrations: All illustrations should be provided in camera-ready form, suitable for reproduction (which may include reduction) without retouching. Photographs, charts and diagrams are all to be referred to as "Figure(s)" and should be numbered consecutively in the order to which they are referred. They should accompany the manuscript, but should not be included within the text. All illustrations should be clearly marked on the back with the figure number and the author's name. All figures are to have a caption. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.
Line drawings: Good quality printouts on white paper produced in black ink are required. All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to permit reproduction when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal. Dye-line prints or photocopies are not suitable for reproduction. Do not use any type of shading on computer-generated illustrations.
Photographs: Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced (e.g. black and white or colour). If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Please note that photocopies of photographs are not acceptable.
Colour: Reproduction of colour is available if the author is willing to bear the additional incremental reproduction and printing costs. Please contact the editorial office for details. A letter confirming the author's willingness to accept these costs should be sent with the revised manuscript. Authors should note that illustrations will not be returned unless specifically requested.
