Publication Policy

One of the main aims of the ICEAF Conference series is to ensure excellence and high scientific merit of the events. The publication of high-quality proceedings and special issues of reputable peer-reviewed international journals contribute to achieving this aim.

Therefore, for every work that will be presented at ICEAF IX, the authors will be entitled to submit full papers for publication in the Conference Proceedings Volume or/and in the dedicated Special Issues hosting papers from the Conference. In this frame, the Organizing Committee is happy to confirm, the following publication arrangements:

1.Publication of the e-book of abstracts
Participants will have the opportunity to share the short summaries of their presentations in the ICEAF Conference book of abstracts, which will be distributed to the Conference participants and will also be made available online.
2.Conference Proceedings
Further information will be available soon.
3.Special Issues
Further information will be available soon.
4.Important Notes
- Each participant is limited to give at most two (2) presentations.
- In order for a work to be included in the Conference program, presented and included in the Conference Proceedings, as well as be eligible for the Special Issues, at least one author of the work must have completed a paid registration (referred to as the paying author) for the 9th International Conference of Engineering Against Failure.
- Each author can qualify as the paying author for up to 2 presentations.
- Prospective authors will be required to warrant that the work is original and submitted for first publication in the respective scientific journal(s). All submitted manuscripts will be checked to avoid claims of plagiarism. In this context, overlaps with already published works, including the full-length papers for the ICEAF IX Conference Proceedings, should typically not exceed 25%. The accurate percentage of acceptable overlap will be set by the respective journal.
