Abstract
The article presents the analysis of Russian journals whose topics are related to the areas of activity of the Scientific Council on Control Theory and Processes at the Department of Energy, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanics and Control Processes of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Results of a survey of the leading Russian scientists in this field of science, including members of the council, helped to form a preliminary list of journals. The characteristics of these journals and their existing ratings are presented.It is noted that the well-known scientometric indicators do not allow one to evaluate the journals’ development pathways directly. A proposed indicator characterizes the average rate of change in a journal’s impact factor over a given time interval. The values of development indicators have been calculated and analyzed according to the Russian Index of Science Citation (RISC) and Scopus databases for the abovementioned journals included in these databases. The development pathways of some individual journals are considered.The article gives conclusions and recommendations that may be useful to the editorial staff – with a view to promoting their publications and to authors – in choosing a journal for publication.
