The Journal of Light Metals (JLM) is a new refereed archival journal to be published by Elsevier Science, which will serve both the academic and industrial sectors by providing an enhanced web component as well as four printed issues per year. The journal will publish original work which advances the knowledge base of light metals in the domains of processing, microstructure development and resultant properties and performance.
Over the last two decades we have witnessed significant increases in the use of light metals such as Al, Mg, Ti, Li, etc. Furthermore, the consumption rate of these materials is continually increasing due to societal pressures for high performance, lighter weight materials, as well as growing demands for battery materials.
JLM will give light metals researchers access to the world's light metals research in one comprehensive website. The web component will consist of additional abstracts and full text links, patents, proceedings and relevant review papers from other journals. JLM's mission is to be the comprehensive and user friendly portal to the most recent knowledge base in Light Metals.
The Editor-in-Chief, Professor Diran Apelian, Director of the Metal Processing Institute, WPI, Worcester, MA, USA is proud to be a part of this innovative research station for the light metals field. The Editorial Board consists of the following international panel of experts: Prof. Lars Arnberg, Norwegian University of Science & Technology, Norway; Prof. James Evans, University of California- Berkeley, CA, USA; Prof. Akihisa Inoue, Tohoku University, Japan; Prof. Peter Lee, Imperial College of Science, Technology & Medicine, UK; Prof. Tresa Pollock, University of Michigan, USA; Prof. Donald Sandoway, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA; Prof. David St. John, University of Queensland, Australia; Prof. Edgar Starke, University of Virginia, USA; Prof. James Williams, Ohio State University, USA
