10 Years of Manufacturing Review: A Promising Future Ahead
We are delighted to announce that Manufacturing Review is celebrating its 10th anniversary. Over the past decade, under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Prof. Yi Qin and supported by an esteemed team of international Associate Editors and Editorial Board members, the journal has consistently published outstanding original research papers. Our focus spans a broad range of topics, including materials for advanced manufacturing, nano-manufacturing methods and technology, advanced metrology, instrumentation, quality assurance, testing and inspection, among others (read the Aims and Scope for more details).
Since 2016, Manufacturing Review is indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). The journal has also been awarded the prestigious DOAJ Seal for demonstrating “best practice in open access publishing”. The journal is indexed in the most important indexation bases as Scopus, EI Compendex and Web of Science (ESCI). In 2023, it received its first Impact factor (2022 IF Impact Factor 2.5 and 5-Year IF 2.9). The 2023 Impact factor is: 1.9 (2023 5-Year IF 2.2).
To celebrate this milestone, we have prepared a selection of the most downloaded and most cited articles.
