International Journal of Mechanical Sciences Impact Factor, Indexing, Ranking 2024

The International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (IJMS) is an international forum for the publication and dissemination of original work which contributes to greater scientific understanding of the main disciplines underpinning the mechanical, civil and material engineering sciences. Original contributions providing insight into the use of analytical, computational (e.g. FEM, BEM, mesh-free methods and others) modelling methods for rigid-body mechanics (e.g. dynamics, vibration, stability), structural mechanics, metal forming, behaviour and application of advanced materials (metals, composite, cellular, smart etc.), impact mechanics, strain localization and other effects of nonlinearity (e.g. large deflections, plasticity, fracture etc.), fluid mechanics (external and internal flows), tribology, thermodynamics and materials processing generally form the core of the journal contents. The International Journal of Mechanical Sciences does not accept for publication material which quite specifically belongs with other established specialist journals. Papers whose concern is primarily with mathematical or computational techniques, developed within a general framework and not aimed at any specific engineering application, are not requested. Similarly, papers whose content is purely descriptive or empirical and which do not make any scientific contribution, will not be considered. Comparison with experiments/tests conducted by the authors or others to validate the main contribution of the paper are strongly encouraged, however design-based studies, based on established formulae and methods, are outside our scope and should not be submitted to the International Journal of Mechanical Sciences.

《国际机械科学杂志》（IJMS）系国际学术交流平台，旨在发表与传播原创研究成果，这些成果有助于深化对机械、土木及材料工程科学主要学科的科学研究。该杂志收录的原创性贡献，如分析、计算（例如有限元法（FEM）、边界元法（BEM）、无网格方法等）建模方法在刚体力学（例如动力学、振动、稳定性）、结构力学、金属成形、高级材料（金属、复合材料、多孔材料、智能材料等）的行为与应用、冲击力学、应变集中及其他非线性效应（例如大变形、塑性、断裂等）、流体力学（外部与内部流动）、摩擦学、热力学以及材料加工等方面的见解，构成了杂志的核心内容。国际机械科学杂志不接受与已设立的专业期刊内容高度重合的稿件。那些主要关注于在一般框架内开发的数学或计算技术，且未针对特定工程应用的论文，不在本杂志的征稿范围之内。同样，那些内容纯为描述性或经验性，且未作出任何科学贡献的论文，亦不予考虑。然而，强烈鼓励作者或他人通过实验/测试与论文主要贡献进行对比验证，但基于既定公式与方法的设计研究，则超出了本杂志的范畴，不应提交至国际机械科学杂志。
