About the journal
The journal Composites Science and Technology publishes refereed original articles on all aspects of the
fundamental and applied science of engineering composites. It is the function of this journal to bring together in one publication outstanding papers that encompass the complete range of composite materials, including biocomposites, foams, functional and smart composites, gradient and layered composites, nanocomposites, structural composites, eco-composites and composites mimicking natural materials. It deals with reinforcements ranging from nano- to micro- to meso- to macro-scale in metal, polymer, cementitious and ceramic matrices. The editors welcome theoretical and experimental papers dealing with multi-scale and multi-functional issues and properties of the new generation of composite materials. Articles addressing all aspects of composites research, from material processing, manufacturing, and performance characterization to analysis, design, simulations and modelling, are welcome. The journal particularly encourages an interdisciplinary approach to the study of composites. Papers covering novel topics, extending the frontiers of the science and technology of composites, are encouraged. Reviews covering topics of major interest will be presented at regular intervals. Besides regular research papers and review papers, letters communicating significant research findings in a timely manner are also welcome. It is the aim of Composites Science and Technology to play an effective role in the rapid dissemination of research findings in the ever-evolving field of composite materials.
Instructions to Authors
Submission of Papers Authors are requested to submit three copies of their original manuscript and figures to the Editor in their region. Contributors in Asia and Australia may submit their papers to: Professor Yiu-Wing Mai, Centre for Advanced Materials Technology, School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering, University of Sydney, Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia. Contributors in Europe may submit their papers to: Professor Karl Schulte, Technical University Hamburg-Harburg, Polymers & Composites, Denickestrasse 15, D-21073 Hamburg, Germany. Contributors in North America and all other areas should send their papers to the Editor-in-Chief: Professor Tsu-Wei Chou, Center for Composite Materials and Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Delaware, Newark, Delaware 19711, USA.
All manuscripts are to be written in English. Papers essentially of an advertising nature will not be accepted.
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.
Types of Contributions Original papers, occasional review papers and letters, on all aspects of fundamental and applied science of engineering composites will be considered for publication. Concise articles which communicate new and important results, or letters to published articles, will be included in a short communication section, and will be published with the minimum of delay. Short communications should consist of no more than four manuscript pages. Authors may mail, fax or E-mail (if no figures are involved) such contributions to an Editor, with an accompanying brief statement indicating the specific reason for urgency.
Manuscript Preparation The following conditions must be met, otherwise the manuscripts will be immediately returned to the authors for reformatting: (i) three copies of the manuscript must be submitted; (ii) text must be double line spaced and in single column format; (iii) tables and figures must not be incorporated within the text, but should be appended on separate sheets.
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. 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. Papers will normally be published in order of acceptance by the Editor, although this may occasionally be changed for reasons of space, or to publish more quickly particular papers which the Editor considers of topical interest. The use of property names should be avoided as far as possible, but may be acceptable where, in the Editors opinion, the proprietary name is a universally known description of the material in question, eg Kevlar-49.
Abstracts: Each paper should be provided with an Abstract of about 100-150 words, reporting on the purpose and results of the paper and with five key words for use in indexing and by Abstract services.
Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text, Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Figure Captions and then Tables. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes should be avoided, but where necessary should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers (except for table footnotes).
Keywords: Authors should select a maximum of five 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 five keywords should appear on the title page of each paper submitted for consideration, following the abstract.
Units: The SI system should be used for all scientific and laboratory data, although values in other systems may be quoted in parentheses after the SI units if authors consider it necessary.
Symbols: Temperatures should be given in Celsius (C) or Kelvin (K) scales. Abbreviations for units should follow the suggestions of the British Standards publication BS 1991. The full stop should not be included in abbreviations, eg m (not m.), ppm (not p.p.m.): '%' and '/' should be used in preference to 'per cent' and 'per'. Where abbreviations are likely to cause ambiguity or not be readily understood by an international readership, units should be put in full.
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 Wu [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. Wu W, Verpoest I, Varna J. A novel axisymmetric variational analysis of stress transfer into fibres through a partially debonded interface. Comp Sci Tech 1998;58(12):1863-1877. 2. Wakeman MD. Non-isothermal compression moulding of glass fibre reinforced polypropylene composites. PhD Thesis, University of Nottingham, Department of Mechanical Engineering, 1997. 3. Clemens S, Western E, Handermann A. Hybrid yarns for high-performance thermoplastic composites.

Non-crimp thermoplastic composite fabrics - aerospace solutions to automotive problems. Advanced Composite Materials: New Developments and Applications Conference Proceedings, Detroit, Michigan, USA: ASM International, 1991. p. 339-349.
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: Where colour figures are required the author will pay the costs of colour printing at the present colour printing rates.
Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given a suitable caption and each table typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lowercase letters. No vertical rules should be used. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the manuscript, (e.g. in graphs).
Electronic submission Authors should submit an electronic copy of their paper with the final version of the manuscript. The electronic copy should match the hardcopy exactly. Always keep a backup copy of the electronic file for reference and safety. Full details of electronic submission and formats can be obtained from http://authors.elsevier.com
Proofs Proofs will be sent to the author (first named author if no corresponding author is identified of multi-authored papers) and should be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections should be restricted to typesetting errors; any others may be charged to the author. Any queries should be answered in full. Please note that authors are urged to check their proofs carefully before return, since the inclusion of late corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofs are to be returned to the Log-in Department, Elsevier Science, The Boulevard, Langford Lane, Kidlington, Oxford OX5 1GB, UK.
