Focus and Scope

Journal  of Physics and Application (JPA) publishes high impact, original research about physical sciences and their application. Publications should apply physical sciences paradigms to address problem in sciences and techniques.

Physical Sciences and Application topics of interest include:

1. Acoustics ranging from medicine and non-disturbed test (NDT) for environment and buildings applications.
2. Material sciences and their application (ceramic, nano-technology, nano-material);
3. Optical science and technology in the field of astronomical, nonlinear, biometric optics and other related issues
4. Particular emphasis on methodological developments and innovative applications of geophysical sciences and techniques to apply engineering, environmental, and hydrological problems. Related topical research in exploration geophysics and in soil and rock physics is also covered. 
5. Methodological development of computational method for solving physical problems.
6. Instrumentation for medical application and NDT, sensor, control, etc.

The JPA manuscript checks using Ithenticate Software, where the manuscript submitted in the JPA must less than 20 % of similarity index.

Peer Review Process

Each article submitted to the editor will be selected through an initial review process by the editorial board. All submitted texts will be checked for plagiarism potential using the software "iThenticate". Then the article will be sent to the reviewer and will be selected by the single blind method. In each manuscript, reviewers will assess the substance of the technical aspects of the article. Assessment criteria include originality, truth of content, clarity of description, and suitability of journal targets with process review. After that, the article will be returned to the author for revision. A reviewer of the JFA journal is an expert in physics and its applications. They have experience in leading journal management and have published papers at national and international levels.

All people who have made significant contributions must be registered as authors. If there are other people who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they must be recognized or registered as contributors. The author who corresponds to the editor must ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no co-authors are incorrectly included in the article and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the article and have approved the submission for publication.
