Scope

The Journal of the Korean Society for Railway (JKSR) launched in 1997 aims to provide a platform to exchange research information, establish and pioneer railway-related academia, and present research results that are both practical and unique. The journal covers various research results, derived from theory and experiments, on topics related to railways such as railway policy and management, railway facilities, carriage machinery, electrical signals, and track engineering. It includes research outcomes that can contribute directly to the improvement of railway technologies as well as innovative studies on fundamental areas that can be applied to railways including mechanics, electricity, civil engineering, logistics, management and so on. The themes addressed by the journal include, but not limited to the following: Rolling stock & Mechanical systems (materials, fracture, non-destructive testing, mechanics of materials and structures, design, dynamics and control, noise and vibration, heat and fluid mechanics, energy and power engineering, system engineering, reliability, maintenance, safety, etc.), Power & Signal systems (power engineering and systems, electrical devices, circuits and systems, materials and devices, control and measurement, automation, signal processing, electrical and information communication, reliability, maintenance, safety, etc.), Civil engineering for railway (structural engineering, material engineering, dynamics, seismic engineering, geotechnical engineering, measurement, geodetic survey, mapping, GIS, construction, architectural and environmental engineering, transportation engineering, etc.), Transportation policy & Operation (railway traffic planning and engineering, railway management policy, railway technology policy, railway logistics, railway operation, railway information system, railway culture, etc.).

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Cites per Doc

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.
