Journal overview

The Journal of Marine Engineering and Technology publishes papers that explore developments in marine engineering and marine technology for industrial practitioners and researchers, considering topical issues from environmental impacts, energy transition and performance through to autonomy and artificial intelligence. The journal only publishes work that contributes significantly to the advancement of marine engineering and technology and demonstrates applicability in a real a world setting.

The Journal of Marine Engineering and Technology will consider papers which examine advances in marine engineering and technology in the fields of;

  • Fuels and onboard fuel systems;
  • Environmental aspects
  • Novel Energy systems including advances in propulsion and power generation;
  • Auxiliary/ancillary systems and their design;
  • Energy saving technology and techniques;
  • Systems in support of autonomous shipping;
  • Advances in maintenance of marine engineering systems;
  • Artificial intelligence;
  • Autonomy, robotics and automation;
  • Shipboard control systems;
  • Sensors and actuation;
  • Data analytics and tools
  • Design and manufacturing methods
  • Rules and Regulations for machinery

Research and methods must be presented clearly, and where appropriate incorporate comparisons with existing methods. For more detail on layout and submission refer to the instructions for authors.

All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief and the Associate Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, enter peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is anonymized usually involving two or more reviewers. Authors are requested to submit manuscripts via the journal's online submission system following the Instructions for Authors.
