The Journal of Hydraulic Research JHR accepts papers relating to hydraulic engineering and hydraulic research. The basic requirements for paper acceptance are:

1. Work has not been published in another Journal. It should be clearly indicated in the paper submission when a work was previously declined by another journal.
2. Papers accepted for publication in the JHR need a copyright transfer agreement signed by the principal author.
3. Paper submission is made by e-mail to editor.jhr@iahr.org. The submission format should be a PDF-file, to guarantee safety for the Editorial Office.
4. All papers submitted should be prepared double-spaced.

Favored areas for papers include:

1. State-of-the-art papers in a particular research area of the IAHR community, with suggestions for future research directions,
2. Technical Papers different from the traditional areas and approaches of hydraulic engineering and research including hydrodynamics, fluvial hydraulics, water resources, maritime hydraulics, ecohydraulics, groundwater, environmental and industrial flows, and hydraulic structures,
3. Technical Notes with a maximum of 4 typeset pages in the JHR, presenting novel ideas for which the paper format is too long,
4. Educational and Forum articles to promote novel experiences in teaching hydraulics, and to highlight historical issues of hydraulic research or actualities in water related science and technologies,
5. Case studies with a general approach that may be instrumental and descriptive for the solution of similar hydraulic works,
6. Discussions to the previous articles, limited to a maximum of 2 printed journal pages.

All these submissions are subject to a peer review process.
