Physical Review Fluids (PRF)

Physical Review Fluids is a peer‑reviewed scientific journal published by the American Physical Society (APS) that specializes in fluid dynamics research and related physical sciences. Launched in 2016, it is the first title in the Physical Review family dedicated exclusively to fluid mechanics. The journal publishes original work that advances fundamental understanding of fluid behavior across scales and contexts — from classical turbulence, laminar flow, and hydrodynamic instabilities to bio‑inspired flows, micro‑ and nano‑fluidics, and geophysical or environmental fluid phenomena. Each article undergoes rigorous peer review, and Physical Review Fluids follows the APS editorial standards and practices common across the Physical Review journals. The monthly publication schedule ensures a steady stream of high‑quality research articles, often accompanied by visualizations, theoretical analysis, and computational studies aimed at broad audiences in the fluid mechanics community. The journal also publishes invited collections (including selected papers from APS Division of Fluid Dynamics meetings), Gallery of Fluid Motion submissions, and Editors’ Suggestions highlighting particularly impactful papers. Indexed in major scientific and citation databases such as Science Citation Index Expanded, Scopus, and Inspec, Physical Review Fluids has rapidly become a well‑recognized outlet for cutting‑edge fluid dynamics research. Its role in fostering interdisciplinary approaches — linking physics, engineering, applied mathematics, and environmental science — makes it a key resource for experimentalists, theorists, and computational scientists alike.
