About this journal
Aims and scope
Applied Mathematics in Science and Engineering (AMSE) is an international research journal which publishes top-level work from all areas of mathematical methods including their applications to different fields such as biology, medicine, finance, economics, computer science, physics, and engineering.
Topics covered include, but are not limited to, the following fields:
- differential equations (e.g., ordinary, partial, impulsive, fractional, delay, functional)
- difference equations, dynamic equations, dynamical systems,
- integral equations,
- control and optimization,
- inverse problems,
- scientific computing and numerical analysis,
- computational mathematics and data science.
Submitted papers must be correct and well written, containing new, original, and nontrivial results.
AMSE actively encourages special issues in areas covered by the aim and scope. Please contact the Editor-in-Chief with special issue proposals in the first instance.
Peer Review Policy
All submitted manuscripts are subject to Crossref similarity checks and initial appraisal by the Editor and/or one of the Associate Editors. If found suitable for further consideration, papers are subject to peer review by at least two independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized.
This journal was formerly known as:
- Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering (2004 - 2021) - the journal converted to Open Access and changed to the current title in 2022.
- Inverse Problems in Engineering (1994 - 2003)

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.
Journal metrics in brief
Usage and acceptance rate data above are for the last full calendar year and are updated annually in February. Speed data is updated every six months, based on the prior six months. Citation metrics are updated annually mid-year. Please note that some journals do not display all of the following metrics (find out why).
- Usage: the total number of times articles in the journal were viewed by users of Taylor & Francis Online in the previous calendar year, rounded to the nearest thousand.
Citation Metrics
- Impact Factor*: the average number of citations received by articles published in the journal within a two-year window. Only journals in the Clarivate Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), Arts and Humanities Citation Index (AHCI) and the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) have an Impact Factor.
- Impact Factor Best Quartile*: the journal’s highest subject category ranking in the Journal Citation Reports. Q1 = 25% of journals with the highest Impact Factors.
- 5 Year Impact Factor*: the average number of citations received by articles in the journal within a five-year window.
- CiteScore (Scopus)†: the average number of citations received by articles in the journal over a four-year period.
- CiteScore Best Quartile†: the journal’s highest CiteScore ranking in a Scopus subject category. Q1 = 25% of journals with the highest CiteScores.
- SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper): the number of citations per paper in the journal, divided by citation potential in the field.
- SJR (Scimago Journal Rank): Average number of (weighted) citations in one year, divided by the number of articles published in the journal in the previous three years.
Speed/acceptance
- From submission to first decision: the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the journal to receive a first decision. Based on manuscripts receiving a first decision in the last six months.
- From submission to first post-review decision: the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the journal to receive a first decision if it is sent out for peer review. Based on manuscripts receiving a post-review first decision in the last six months.
- From acceptance to online publication: the average (median) number of days from acceptance of a manuscript to online publication of the Version of Record. Based on articles published in the last six months.
- Acceptance rate: articles accepted for publication by the journal in the previous calendar year as percentage of all papers receiving a final decision.
