Article Processing Charge

Author Fees

In an open-access publication model, the costs of publishing an article are covered by the author's research budget or the supporting institution through Article Processing Charges (APCs). These charges replace traditional subscription fees and allow publishers to make the full text of every published article freely available to all interested readers. It is important to note that no fees are charged for the submission of articles.

The Journal does not require any article Processing Charge (APC) or any Article Submission Charge (ASC) for regular issue publication. Conversely, all articles accepted for publication in Special Issues are subject to an Article Processing Charge (APC).

Paper offprints can be ordered via the offprint order form which is sent once the article is accepted for publication with chargers depending on pages required.
