 An International Journal for Innovations in Computational Methodology and Application

Description
The aim of this journal is to provide ideas and information involving the use of the finite element method and its variants, both in scientific
inquiry and in professional practice. The scope is intentionally broad, encompassing use of the finite element method in engineering
as well as the pure and applied sciences. The emphasis of the journal will be the development and use of numerical procedures to solve
practical problems, although contributions relating to the mathematical and theoretical foundations and computer implementation of numerical
methods are likewise welcomed. Review articles presenting unbiased and comprehensive reviews of state-of-the-art topics will also be
accommodated.
All submissions to FINEL will be peer reviewed, and must have archival value to be suitable for publication. Reflecting
the aforementioned emphasis on solution of practical problems, numerical demonstration of proposed methodologies will generally be considered
a necessary ingredient for papers appearing in FINEL. Conversely, applications of existing finite element techniques to widely studied
problems will typically not be favorably considered for publication, except where such presentations are particularly novel or enlightening,
either with respect to the results obtained or the method of application used.
The journal encompasses any field where numerical
solution procedures for initial/boundary value problems are needed to meet design and analysis needs. Although the following list is
not exhaustive, contributions are sought in structural mechanics, geomechanics, mechanical engineering, mechanics of materials, fluid
mechanics, thermal sciences, hydrology, chemical engineering, biomechanics, electrical engineering, aero/astro engineering, and environmental
engineering and science. In addition to contributions focused directly on numerical methodologies, submissions dealing with computer-aided
engineering methods, parallel computing, optimal design strategies, mesh generation and post processing, code validation, experimental
verification, and visualization are also solicited.

We are pleased to announce that a new electronic
submission and handling system, EES, has been implemented for Finite Elements in Analylsis and Design. EES (the Elsevier Editorial System)
is a web-based system with full online submission, review and status update capabilities. EES allows you to upload files directly from
your computer. This is part of our ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency and accuracy of our editorial procedures, and the quality
and timeliness of the manuscripts published. We strongly encourage all authors to use EES at the following URL when submitting papers
to FINEL. The Elsevier Editorial System can be accessed at  http://ees.elsevier.com/finel (First time users will need to
register.)
