What to Look for When Choosing a Journal

Before submitting your research, evaluate journals on these key criteria:

  • Indexed in Google Scholar for maximum academic and industry discoverability
  • CrossRef DOI assignment for permanent, citable article identification
  • Listed in DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals)
  • Visible in AI-powered academic discovery and citation tools
  • ISSN registration (both print and online) for library cataloguing
  • Compliance with indexing standards — DOI, OAI-PMH, structured metadata

Why Indexing Matters for Engineering Research Visibility

Indexing is what makes your engineering and technology research discoverable. A paper published in a non-indexed journal may not appear in Google Scholar searches, will not be cited by researchers who find papers through academic databases, and will not contribute meaningfully to your citation profile or H-index. Indexed engineering journals ensure your work is found by researchers, engineers, and practitioners searching for solutions to the exact technical problems your research addresses. Keith Publications engineering journals are indexed in Google Scholar and CrossRef, making your research visible to the global technical community immediately upon publication.

How Keith Publications Journals Are Indexed

All Keith Publications engineering, technology, and applied sciences journals are indexed in Google Scholar, assigned CrossRef DOIs for permanent article identification, and listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). Articles are archived through digital preservation services ensuring long-term availability. Each published article receives a unique DOI that creates a permanent, trackable citation record accessible through major academic reference management tools — including Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote, and RefWorks — as well as engineering-focused research discovery platforms.

Tips to Maximise Your Acceptance Chances

  1. Align your topic with the journal's scope — read the aims and scope carefully before submitting.
  2. Write a compelling abstract — it's the first thing editors and reviewers read. Make it clear, concise, and keyword-rich.
  3. Ensure strong methodology — clearly describe your research design, experimental setup, or computational approach.
  4. Use current and relevant citations — include recent publications (within the last 5 years) alongside seminal engineering works.
  5. Follow formatting guidelines exactly — non-compliant manuscripts are often desk-rejected without review.
  6. Present results clearly — use tables, figures, and graphs to communicate quantitative findings effectively.
  7. State practical implications — explain how your engineering or technology findings can be applied in practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which materials science journals are indexed in Google Scholar?
The Applied Sciences, Engineering, and Technology Journal (ASETJ) from Keith Publications is indexed in Google Scholar and CrossRef DOI assigned, providing full academic indexing for all materials science research domains.
Does Google Scholar index nanomaterials and nanocomposites research?
Yes. Nanomaterials synthesis, characterisation, and application papers published in ASETJ are indexed in Google Scholar, making them discoverable by the global nanotechnology and materials science research community.
How does CrossRef DOI benefit materials science researchers?
CrossRef DOI provides a permanent identifier for your materials science paper — enabling citation tracking from materials science databases, engineering platforms, chemistry literature, and all reference management tools. It ensures every citation to your work is accurately tracked.
Are computational materials science papers indexed in these journals?
Yes. DFT simulations, molecular dynamics studies, finite element modelling of materials, and machine learning for materials discovery are within scope for indexed publication at ASETJ.
