The 19th century was the century of Newton, the present century is the century of Einstein, and the coming century will be of nonlinear sciences. Nonlinear phenomena appear everywhere in our daily life and our scientifical works, and represent one of the most important fields of research in science and technology. However, it is still very difficult to solve a nonlinear problem, either numerically or theoretically, and even more difficult to establish a real model for the nonlinear problem. Many assumptions have to be made to make practical engineering problems solvable, leading to loss of information. One of our chief aims is to establish more reasonable nonlinear models for practical engineering problems, social science, the economical sciences and so on, which are of interest to a large readership. The highest priority will given to contributions concerned with the application of variational theory to deduce field equations and boundary/initial conditions, and inverse or hybrid problems of identification of optimal airfoils, cascades and channels with most possible engineering application in 20th century.
The second aim of the journal is to provide a specific medium for the dissemination of research results in various nonlinear analytical methods to find approximate solutions which reveal the main physical understanding and can guide engineers to further experimental works. We are interested in approximate solutions with physical understanding, and we will not accept manuscripts which are of purely mathematical character. Special attention is put on the contributions of new approaches to strongly nonlinear systems though the methods might have still some shortcomings, and some mathematical theories (such as convergence theory ) are left space for mathematician.
Our last important aim is the numerical solution to the nonlinear problems. However, we can not accepted papers dealing with only numerical solution without comparison to experiment results or known results . We hope that the numerical solutions will reveal new phenomena that other methods can not find.
The journal will only publish original contributions, preferably not longer than 10 printed pages, from the entire field of nonlinear sciences and their applications. Survey articles on important issues are only invited by the editors.
The International Journal of Nonlinear Sciences and Numerical Simulation publishes original papers on all subjects relevant to nonlinear sciences and numerical simulation. But manuscripts with purely mathematical characters or without possible exciting applications will not be published.. The highest priority will be given to papers discussing the background of practical problem, the establishment of an appropriate nonlinear model, the determination of a solution, approximate or exact, analytical or numerical, and a discussion of the relevance of the results when applied to the real-life problem.
The following manuscripts are encouraged:
