About the Journal

PISTON: Jurnal Teknologi (PISTON-JT) is a peer-reviewed open access journal that provides a forum for the publication and dissemination of scholarly work in the field of engineering and technology. Managed and published by the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Halu Oleo, PISTON-JT aims to contribute to the advancement of science and technology by publishing original and high-quality articles.

The journal covers a broad spectrum of topics in engineering and applied technology. PISTON-JT also welcomes submissions from related natural sciences disciplines—such as applied physics, chemistry, mathematics, environmental sciences, etc.—that demonstrate strong relevance or applications in technology and engineering. Interdisciplinary research bridging science and engineering is particularly encouraged, reflecting the journal’s commitment to technological innovation grounded in scientific understanding. PISTON-JT is published twice a year, with regular issues released in June and December. The journal is committed to maintaining a timely and consistent publishing schedule to support the dissemination of current and impactful research.

To ensure academic rigor and maintain the quality of published articles, PISTON-JT applies a single-blind peer review process. In this model, reviewers remain anonymous to the authors, while the authors’ identities are known to the reviewers. Each submission first undergoes an editorial screening for relevance, completeness, and adherence to author guidelines. Manuscripts deemed suitable are then reviewed by at least two independent reviewers who evaluate the work based on its originality, clarity, methodological soundness, and contribution to the field. Editorial decisions are made based on reviewers' recommendations. Please unsure that maximum acceptable similarity index is 25%, excluding references and citations. Manuscripts exceeding this threshold or found to violate ethical standards will be immediately rejected. Authors are expected to ensure that their work is original and appropriately cited.

By offering an open access platform, PISTON-JT ensures that all content is freely available to readers and researchers worldwide, fostering the global exchange of knowledge in science and engineering. The journal welcomes contributions from academics, researchers, and practitioners from across disciplines whose work aligns with its scope.
