Overview

Top Research Topics at International Journal of Aeroacoustics?

International Journal of Aeroacoustics is organized to address concerns in the fields of Acoustics, Mechanics, Noise, Jet (fluid) and Turbulence. The journal tackles studies in Mach number and the interrelated subject of Compressibility to gain insights into Acoustics. Aside from discussions in Mechanics, International Journal of Aeroacoustics also deals with the subject of Classical mechanics which intersects with Euler equations disciplines.

Topics in Noise were tackled in line with various other fields like Turbine, Computational fluid dynamics, Aerospace engineering, Wind tunnel and Rotor (electric). In addition to Jet (fluid) research, the journal aims to explore topics under Nozzle, Supersonic speed, Optics and Noise (radio). Supersonic speed research discussed connects with the study of Shock (fluid dynamics).

Most of the works presented in International Journal of Aeroacoustics deals with Noise (radio) but it intersects with the subject of Near and far field. Specifically, studies on Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are prevalent in the Turbulence works discussed. International Journal of Aeroacoustics connects the study in Jet noise with the closely related area of Large eddy simulation.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

International Journal of Aeroacoustics primarily focuses on research topics in Acoustics, Materials science, Noise reduction, Noise and Aerodynamics. Some problems in Acoustics that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Trailing edge, Broadband, Airfoil, Turbofan and Attenuation. The close relationship between Fan noise and Noise control and Automotive engineering is one of the points of interest dissected in Noise reduction research.

The studies on Noise discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Doors, Landing gear and Fuselage. Concepts in Momentum transfer, as well as related topics in Mechanics, are covered in the Mean flow research presented in the journal. Aside from investigating topics in Hydrodynamic pressure, Static pressure and Jet noise under Mechanics, International Journal of Aeroacoustics also explores concepts in Momentum (technical analysis).

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • The effect of the convective momentum transfer on the acoustic boundary condition of perforated liners with grazing mean flow (1 citations)
  • Design of a single degree of freedom acoustic liner for a fan noise test rig (1 citations)
  • Experimental investigation of the fluctuating static pressure in a subsonic axisymmetric jet (1 citations)

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 6.67% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 39.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 17.86% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.14% of all publications and 35.71% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
