TheJournal of Fluid Mechanics is apeer-reviewedscientific journal in the field offluid mechanics. It publishes original work on theoretical, computational, and experimental aspects of the subject.
The journal is published byCambridge University Press and retains a strong association with theUniversity of Cambridge, in particular theDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP). Until January 2020, volumes were published twice a month in a single-columnB5 format, but the publication is now online-only with the same frequency.[1]
The journal was established in 1956 byGeorge Batchelor, who remained theeditor-in-chief for some forty years. He started out as the sole editor, but later a team of associate editors provided assistance in arranging the review of articles.Detlef Lohse is the author who has most papers (169 times) appeared in this journal.
The following people have been editor (later, editor in chief) of theJournal of Fluid Mechanics:
