The journal has as its objective the
publication and wide electronic dissemination of innovative and
consequential research in mechanics of materials and deformable
structures of all types. Analytical, computational, and
experimental results must serve to clarify physical phenomena that
typically involve small or large deformation states. Methods that
can be generalized to a wider class of problems are
encouraged.
Scope
Drawing from all areas of engineering,
materials, and biology, the mechanics of solids, materials, and
structures is experiencing considerable growth in directions not
anticipated a few years ago, which involve the development of new
technology requiring multidisciplinary simulation. The journal
stimulates this growth by emphasizing fundamental advances that are
relevant in dealing with problems of all length scales. Of growing
interest are the multiscale problems with an interaction between
small and large scale phenomena.
Publisher
JoMMS
is published by
MSP
(Mathematical Sciences Publishers), alongside
other
top journals.
MSP is a nonprofit who
believes
that fair-priced scholar-led subscription journals remain the best stewards of quality and fairness,
and strives to offer the highest quality at the lowest sustainable prices.
MSP also developed
EditFlow,
the popular peer-review web application.
Impartiality Statement
The purpose of
JoMMS
is the advancement of science.
Editors evaluate submitted papers strictly on the basis of scientific merit
with the help of peer review reports,
without regard to authors’ nationality, country of residence,
institutional affiliation, gender, ethnic origin, religion, or political views.
Peer Review
This journal operates a single-anonymized review process (the names of the reviewers are hidden from the author).
All contributions will be initially assessed by an editor for suitability for the journal.
Papers deemed suitable are then typically sent to a minimum of one independent expert reviewer to assess the scientific quality of the paper.
The editors are responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of articles.
The editors’ decisions are final.
Editors are not involved in decisions about papers which they have written themselves.
