International Journal of Micro Air Vehicles is now included in ISI's Social Sciences Citation Index and current contents
The demand for small unmanned air vehicles, commonly termed micro air vehicles, is rapidly increasing. Driven by applications ranging from civil search-and-rescue missions to military surveillance missions, there is a rising level of interest and investment in better vehicle designs, and miniaturized components are enabling many rapid advances.
The need to better understand fundamental aspects of flight for small vehicles has spawned a surge in high quality research in the area of micro air vehicle, or MAV research. These aircraft have a set of constraints which are, in many ways, considerably different from that of traditional aircraft and are often best addressed by a multidisciplinary approach.
Fast-response non-linear controls, nano-structures, integrated propulsion and lift mechanisms, highly flexible structures, and low Reynolds aerodynamics are just a few of the important considerations which may be combined in the execution of MAV research.
The role of the International Journal of Micro Air Vehicle Research is to provide the scientific and engineering community with a resource dedicated to publishing high-quality technical articles summarizing both fundamental and applied research in this field.
Instructions to Authors
follow one style consistently.
running order
Title: in concise form, with wording helping automatic searches, but no superfluous words.
Authors' names: first name in full, other initial(s), family name in full.
Authors' affiliations: postal addresses, e-mail addresses.
Abstract: of less than 150 words written as a 'free standing' paragraph and containing key objectives and conclusions.
1. INTRODUCTION
2. SECTIONS: CAPITALISED HEADINGS; lower case sub heads
X. CONCLUSION
References
equations
Equations should be numbered sequentially in brackets (..) to the right margin. Within the text, an equation is referred to as 'eqn (..)', or equations as 'eqns ( .. - ..)'.
references
References to published work should be numbered sequentially in the order of citation and a reference list in numerical order should be given at the end of the paper.
For an article in a journal, the entry in the reference list must contain the following details:
Name(s) and initial(s) of the author(s), title of article, title of journal (italic), year of publication, volume number (followed by the issue number in parentheses, if known), initial and final page numbers of the article.
The entry in the reference list for a book must contain the following details:
Name(s) and initial(s) of the author(s), title of book (italic), edition (unless first edition), publisher, place of publication, year of publication, initial and final page numbers of the part referred to, if applicable.
In the case of an edited book or conference proceedings, the name(s) and initial(s) of the editor(s) should be followed by the abbreviation ed(s). The entry in the reference list for an article in an edited book or conference proceedings must contain the following details:
Name(s) and initial(s) of the author(s), title of article, in: name(s) and initial(s) of the editor(s) followed by the abbreviation ed(s), title of book or proceedings (italic), publisher, place of publication, year of publication, initial and final page numbers of the article.
The entry in the reference list for a thesis must contain the following details:
Name and initial(s) of the author, title of thesis (italic), degree awarded, university, year of award, initial and final page numbers of the part referred to, if applicable.

Superscript numerals may be used for citation of references in the text. In addition, one may use the abbreviation Ref(s) followed by the reference number(s). Thus one may write: '... Smith4 and Huxley5,6,7 have shown that the behaviour is highly nonlinear. Ref. 5 provides a comprehensive list of references relating to the subject and the latest ideas in the field are covered in Refs. 4 and 7 ...' Numbers in square brackets are allowed to be used instead of superscript numerals. Thus one may write: '... Smith [4] and Huxley [5,6,7] have shown that ...'
greek symbols
Greek characters, either in the text or in equations, should be identified in writing in the margin at the point of first use.
