The aim of the Journal of Solid Mechanics (JSM) is to promote wide electronic dissemination of significant developments and publish high-quality peer reviewed research papers relating to the mechanics of solids and structures. The journal welcomes original articles describing analytical, numerical, and experimental methods in the study of advanced materials and structures, along with reviews and analyses papers in the field.
The scopes of the journal include, but not limited to, these topic areas: mechanics of solids, material sciences, structural mechanics, fracture mechanics, heat transfer, optimum design methods, mathematical modelling, and numerical techniques.
