Journal of Mechanics of Materials and Structures

固体、材料和结构力学从工程、材料和生物学的所有领域中吸取了经验，正朝着几年前没有预料到的方向发展，包括需要多学科模拟的新技术的发展。该杂志通过强调与处理所有长度尺度问题相关的基本进展来刺激这一增长。具有小尺度现象与大尺度现象相互作用的多尺度问题日益引起人们的关注。该杂志的目标是出版和广泛的电子传播创新和重要的研究成果，在材料力学和所有类型的可变形结构。分析、计算和实验结果必须有助于阐明通常涉及小或大变形状态的物理现象。鼓励使用可推广到更广泛问题类别的方法。

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. 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.
