Transportation Science Impact Factor, Indexing, Ranking

Transportation Science (TS) is a scholarly journal dedicated to publishing research in the field of Social Sciences. Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences is the publisher of this esteemed journal. The P-ISSN assigned to Transportation Science is 0041-1655 and its abbreviated form is Transp Sci.

Transportation Science is the flagship journal of the Transportation Science and Logistics Society of INFORMS. As the foremost scientific journal in the cross-disciplinary operational research field of transportation analysis, Transportation Science publishes high-quality original contributions and surveys on phenomena associated with all modes of transportation, present and prospective, including all levels of planning, design, economic, operational, and social aspects. Transportation Science focuses primarily on fundamental theories, coupled with observational and experimental studies of transportation and logistics phenomena and processes, mathematical models, advanced methodologies and novel applications in transportation and logistics systems analysis, planning and design. The journal covers a broad range of topics, including vehicular and human traffic flow theories, models and their application to traffic operations and management, strategic, tactical, and operational planning of transportation and logistics systems; performance analysis methods and system design and optimization, theories and analysis methods for network and spatial activity interaction, equilibrium and dynamics; economics of transportation system supply and evaluation, methodologies for analysis of transportation user behavior and the demand for transportation and logistics services.  Transportation Science is international in scope, with editors from nations around the globe. The journal areas reflect the diverse interdisciplinary interests of the transportation science and logistics community, with members that hold primary affiliations in engineering (civil, industrial, and aeronautical), physics, economics, applied mathematics, and business.

Having recently celebrated its 50^th Anniversary, Transportation Science is in a period of significant growth. In January 2021, the journal introduced a new editorial structure to accommodate this growth and maintain the rigor and quality that is the hallmark of the journal and its review process. As with many INFORMS journals, Transportation Science is now divided by topical areas, each led by an Area Editor. Because the field of transportation science is inherently cross-disciplinary, there are natural overlaps between areas; for example, in common themes, problem characteristics, and methodologies. When submitting papers to the journal, authors are asked to designate an area for review; however, these overlaps may result in multiple options for a submission. Authors may suggest more than one area and the Editor-in-Chief, in consultation with Area Editors, will determine the appropriate area.

Abbreviation : ISO Journal abbreviation refers to the shortened form or acronym used to represent the full title of a scholarly journal. The ISO4 Abbreviation of Transportation Science Journal is Transp Sci.
