For those in social sciences, did you managed to publish your work in journals listed in ISI/Scopus? I've been 2 years into phd but so far no luck getting accepted. Got mixed reviews. One reviewer rejected but another asked for minor correction. But the final decisions from editors always reject.

you can try inderscience publisher..... some journals published by them are Scopus ranked =)

yup....ISI and Scopus have standard.... for newbie try slowly, try those Cabell directory journal, then slowly advance to scopus, then lastly ISI....that's social science exp for me.

Last time managed to publish 1 scopus (took 6 months) and 1 ISI/Scopus (low IF only-took 2 years from review till publish!!). But that's for master thesis. Maybe I was just lucky that time cos the reviewers and editor gave me major revision instead of straight reject. But now phd thesis all rejected lol. Very disappointing.

sometimes you need to investigate further the background of the journal beside ISI and scopus indexed. this is explained much details here :http://scholarlyoa.com

Although I'm not totally agree on how Beall conducted his critical analysis, he has a valid point there. Sometimes it may be better to publish your work in journal without any citation index rather than to submit your work to journal without any proper peer-review. But it is you to make the decision, I heard few different opinions about this

Okay, Dr. Ooi.

Your request has been forwarded to alexkos.

Surname is Ong

added. enjoy =)

Anyone here doing research in nanostructured materials for energy storage?

Are you dealing with Quantum Dots?

I am actually dealing with sodium-ion battery.

hi, newbie in this thread, never realize that's a research community in lowyat forum, haha.
i got my phd in medical physiology.

Your link does not exist

Heat transfer, anyone? Two-phase heat transfer. Electronics cooling. Microchannel flow boiling.

I'm thinking of adapting your microchannel heat sinks technology to exquisite_markas's sodium-ion energy storage technology for futuristic Spacecraft Thermal Control System.

Nice suggestion. But the aerospace industry will never consider using liquid cooling on aircrafts, spacecrafts, and whatnot, despite its proven effectiveness over air cooling.

Probably not on aircraft due to the added weight, but NASA has selected 8 proposals for future Spacecraft Thermal Control Systems and one of them is based on high-performance liquid metal cooling approach.

Fark liquid metal. We have phase change materials.

I know that wall wettability is one of key parameters affecting the multiphase flows in microscale systems.

Can you control the wall wettability?
