The editorial staff of Shape Memory and Superelasticity: Advances in Science and Technology is pleased to announce that the journal has been accepted for indexing by Scopus. Shape Memory and Superelasticity is the official journal of the International Organization on Shape Memory and Superelastic Technologies (SMST), an affiliate society of ASM International.
Scopus is a source-neutral abstract and citation database curated by independent subject matter experts. Scopus indexes content from 24,600 active titles and 5,000 publishers which is vetted and selected by an independent review board, and uses an underlying metadata architecture to connect people, published ideas and institutions. Worldwide, Scopus is used by more than 5,000 academic, government and corporate institutions, and is the main data source that supports the Research Intelligence portfolio. Indexing by Scopus is considered an important step toward acceptance by Clarivate for listing in the Science Citation Index Expanded and an Impact Factor.
Shape Memory and Superelasticity publishes original peer-reviewed papers that focus on shape memory materials research with contributions from materials science, experimental and theoretical mechanics, physics with cognizance of the chemistry, underlying phases, and crystallography. It also provides a forum for researchers, scientists and engineers of varied disciplines to access information about shape memory materials.
Hüseyin Sehitoglu, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has been Editor-in-Chief of Shape Memory and Superelasticity since the journal’s inception in 2015. The Associate Editors of the journal include Tom Duerig, Nitinol Devices & Components, Inc; Dimitris Lagoudas, Texas A&M University; Yinong Liu, The University of Western Australia; Hans Jurgen Maier, Leibniz Universität Hannover; Shuichi Miyazaki, University of Tsukuba; Petr Sittner, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic; and Thomas Waitz, University of Vienna.
