"The Journal of Dental Biomechanics will provide the first peer-reviewed
forum dedicated to the study of biomechanics as it relates to dentistry.
A growing area of study, it will discuss a wide array of applications
covering the vast majority of routine dental practices. It will also
cover a significant field of research within engineering and biomedicine
in general.
The journal will focus on tissue and material biomechanics, with special
emphasis on the mechanical properties of hard and soft tissue and the
analysis of response to loading of alloys, polymer and ceramics. JDB
will be of interest to health care professionals actively involved in:
* enamel and dentin response to loading following treatment
* periodontal ligament mechanics (healthy and diseased)
* lip response to stress from dentition or dentures
* biomechanics of the TMJ
* bone loading and remodeling in orthodontics and implantology"

Professional Engineering Publishing Launches Engineering Conferences Online
"Professional Engineering Publishing, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (www.imeche.org), has launched Engineering Conferences Online (ECO), a new online publishing service for conference organizers. ECO (http://eco.pepublishing.com) provides conference organizers with a new way of disseminating important engineering research that would normally be very difficult or impossible to locate in traditional book or CD formats. Papers in ECO will usually be available free of charge on an open access basis and will be fully referenced using DOIs.
ECO has been designed specifically to meet the demands of hosting conference proceedings online. Conferences on ECO feature further information about each conference including links to the conference website, event location, and event date. For the purposes of ECO a new website architecture has been created to ensure that the service was designed specifically for conferences rather than replicating the structure of an electronic journal. ECO plans to forge new partnerships with conference organizers that will give their content a much wider readership in the future"

RoMEO inclui mais de 400 políticas editoriais acerca do auto-arquivo
Why is RoMEO important?
If an academic author wants to put their research articles on-line, they
are faced with an increasingly complex situation. Evidence shows that
citations to articles made openly accessible in this way are taken up
and cited more often than research that is simply published in journals.
Also some funding agencies require open access archiving for their
research, to increase the use of the information generated.
However, some publishers prohibit authors from using their own articles
in this way. Others allow it, but only under certain conditions, while
others are quite happy for authors to show their work in this way.
Authors can be left confused: RoMEO helps to clarify the situation.
What does RoMEO give users?
The RoMEO service, provided by the award winning SHERPA Partnership*,
uses a simple colour-code to classify policies and inform authors of
what can be done with their articles, and offers users the ability to:
* View summaries of publishers' copyright policies in relation to
self-archiving
* View if publisher policies comply with funding regulations, as
some publishers are too restrictive and cannot be used to publish funded
research
* To search journal and publisher information by Journal Title,
Publisher Name and ISSN
