Dear friends,
We are proud and happy to announce to the fracture and structural integrity community that, since this issue on, the IGF Journal Fracture and Structural Integrity (Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, F&SI) will offer two new service:
- Video embedded: F&SI Authors will be allowed to publish papers containing videos. As a consequence, it will be possible for the authors to describe both figures and videos. Videos will be available for all the OS and all the devices (desktop, laptop and mobile).
- Audioslides: F&SI Authors will be allowed to offer to the readers their Audioslides containing a description of their paper. The Audioslides will be embedded in the paper and will be available for all the OS and all the devices (desktop, laptop and mobile).
Considering the videos, there are no Mb limits and all the main codec are allowed.
Considering the Audioslides, there are neither slides number nor MB limits.
For file size smaller than 20 Mb, Authors can directly send their files to gruppofrattura@gmail.com. Larger files can be sent using services like www.wetransfer.com, www.dropsend.com or www.sendspace.com, or sharing a Dropbox folder with iacoviello@unicas.it.
In order to assist the Audioslides production, a short Tutorial is available here:

Very best
