Archive of Applied Mechanics is organized to address concerns in the fields of Mathematical analysis, Mechanics, Structural engineering, Boundary value problem and Finite element method. The Mathematical analysis works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Isotropy, Geometry, Stress intensity factor and Nonlinear system. It tackles topics on Nonlinear system, which can potentially contribute to the wider field of Control theory.
Mechanics research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Stress (mechanics), Classical mechanics and Constitutive equation. Classical mechanics research is the primary subject tackled in the journal with a focus on Equations of motion. The Structural engineering study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Vibration.
The journal connects research in Finite element method with the related topic of Composite material. Research on Composite material presented in the journal focuses, in particular, on Composite number and Piezoelectricity.
Mathematical analysis, Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Structural engineering and Boundary value problem are the main subjects of interest in the published articles. Discussions in the most cited papers are anchored in the field of Mathematical analysis but it branches out to cover the subject of interrelated disciplines, including
The objective of the journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Mechanics, Mathematical analysis, Boundary value problem, Finite element method and Vibration. The journal facilitates discussions on Mechanics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Work (thermodynamics), Beam (structure), Stress (mechanics), Buckling and Nonlinear system. The studies on Mathematical analysis discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Matrix (mathematics), Equations of motion and Thermoelastic damping.
The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Boundary value problem, apply to Material properties as well. Finite element method studies covered in it falls within the purview of Structural engineering. Archive of Applied Mechanics explores issues in Vibration which can be linked to other research areas like Displacement (vector) and Control theory.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Archive of Applied Mechanics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Archive of Applied Mechanics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 6.35% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 12.86% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.14% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.00% of all publications and 65.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
