International Journal of Mathematics for Industry Mathematics for industry is a recent research field in mathematics that aims to create new opportunities for industry, the development of new technologies and science, and the identification of new focal points for the evolution of mathematics. This new field is being developed through the integration and unification of pure and applied mathematics to highlight and reinforce their fundamental importance for the future solution of current industrial problems and the development of new industrial technologies. Consequently, the scope of this journal includes theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies in all fields of mathematics and the mathematical sciences, provided that their core and flavor retain the spirit of a mathematics-for-industry endeavor. Moreover, the journal welcomes articles that have the potential to identify and foster future opportunities for the development of mathematics. The journal was founded in 2009 as the Journal of Math-for-Industry in the Global COE (Center of Excellence) Program "Education and Research Hub for Mathematics-for-Industry" of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan (FY 2008–2012). Five volumes were published prior to 2014, and the articles from those volumes are archived at http://j-mi.org/. Volumes 6 to 10 (2014–2018) were published in the Pacific Journal of Mathematics for Industry by Springer. Publish your article Open Access for free — all publication costs for accepted articles in the International Journal of Mathematics for Industry are kindly sponsored by the Institute of Mathematics for Industry, Kyushu University, so the authors are not required to pay an article processing charge. The International Journal of Mathematics for Industry is supported by Asia Pacific Consortium of Mathematics for Industry (APCMfI).
