Submission Processes
International Thermal Spray Conference ITSC
Online submission process is required. Authors must submit a 150-200 word abstract in English and should include presenting and co-author information (name, title, company affiliation, complete address, phone and fax numbers and e-mail address).
TSS Topical/Symposium
Speakers are solicited by organizers, but authors who are interested can email ASM a 150-200 word abstract for consideration. Email Jeanelle Harden, Event Manager, at [email protected] for more information on participation.
Journal of Thermal Spray Technology (JTST)
As the only English-language, critically reviewed journal reporting on international technology advances in thermal spraying, Journal of Thermal Spray Technology (JTST) is the primary vehicle for thermal spray information transfer. JTST synergizes the best of new research and development efforts with coverage of the latest engineering applications. It publishes contributions on all fundamental and practical aspects of thermal spray science, including processes, feedstock, manufacture, testing, and characterization.
To submit a manuscript to JTST, please view and follow the author instructions.
All manuscripts, including symposia, will be judged by one or two qualified reviewers, assigned by the Editor or an Associate Editor. The review will be conducted against established criteria to determine technical quality. The reviewers each submit a recommendation to the editorial office regarding the merit of the manuscript, but the Editor or Associate Editor provides a final decision on acceptance of the paper for publication.
For more information on submitting a manuscript to JTST, please contact Marc Cibella, production coordinator at [email protected].
