Newest journal focuses on fuel cell science

The Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology, ASME's newest technical journal, made its debut last month.

The primary objective of the journal is to support and accelerate the development of fuel cells and fuel cell applications for the general benefit of society. It will be published quarterly both online and in print.

Nigel Sammes, who is a professor at the University of Connecticut, is the editor.

The journal will cover a number of topics, such as the development of constituent materials, joining, bonding, connecting, interface/interphase regions, seals, cell design and processing. Other subjects will include manufacturing, multiscale modeling, combined and coupled behavior, aging, durability and damage tolerance, reliability, fuel cell applications, and fuels and infrastructure.

The Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology publishes peer-reviewed archival scholarly articles, technical papers, briefs and feature articles on all aspects of the science, engineering and manufacturing of fuel cells of all types.

The majority of the papers published will present original scholarly work, but a number of published papers will describe, for example, case studies, novel processes, recent research, development or manufacturing advancements, results from on-site stack tests, etc.

Archival papers addressing policy or regulatory issues relating to fuel cells will also fall under the scope of the journal.
