Über diese Zeitschrift
Aims and Scope
Open Transport serves the global transport phenomena community as its leading general science open access title, showcasing the latest advances in mass transfer, heat transfer and fluid dynamics.
With enthusiasm, Open Transport publishes intriguing, elegant, fascinating and important advances in and between these three cognate transport sciences.
Rooted respectively in the conservation principles of mass, energy and momentum, Open Transport attracts contributions from all subdisciplines of the physical and biological sciences, applied mathematics and thus, from all branches of engineering.
Open Transport deepens our understanding across the transport phenomena sciences and advances its applications. Open Transport conducts rigorous and fair peer-review and aims to attract original, tenure accruing contributions, through which the journal endeavors to bring out the very best in the transport community.
Open Transport is an open access journal. All contributions submitted for publication in Open Transport are single-blind peer reviewed. The publication language is English. The publication frequency is continuously.
