The primary areas of discussion in the journal are Structural engineering, Mechanics, Composite material, Finite element method and Vibration. Buckling, Beam (structure), Stiffness, Bending and Plane stress are all subfields of Structural engineering research that were featured in International Journal of Mechanical Sciences. International Journal of Mechanical Sciences explores topics in Mechanics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Constitutive equation, Boundary value problem, Classical mechanics and Nonlinear system.
Studies on Boundary value problem discussed in the journal link to the field of Geometry. Composite material, which encompasses Stress (mechanics), Ultimate tensile strength, Deformation (engineering), Plasticity and Strain rate, is the main subject of it. The studies on Finite element method discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Numerical analysis and Mathematical analysis.
The Vibration research dealing mostly with Normal mode is the focus of the journal.
The journal publications investigate areas of study like Structural engineering, Composite material, Mechanics, Finite element method and Vibration. While the published articles focused on Structural engineering, they were also able to explore topics like Stress (mechanics) and Plasticity. The works on Mechanics tackled in the journal publications bring together disciplines like Classical mechanics and Nonlinear system.
The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Finite element method, Vibration, Mechanics, Strain rate and Acoustics. The featured Finite element method research zeroes in on concepts in Timoshenko beam theory but also tackles themes under Biological system. While it focused on Vibration, it was also able to explore topics like Hysteresis, Magnetorheological elastomer, Exponential stability and Control theory.
Mechanics research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Bending stiffness, Natural frequency, Thermal expansion, Computation and Stiffening. Some problems in Strain rate that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Porosity, Displacement (vector), Identification (information), Plasticity and Finite strain theory. The study of Acoustics encompasses disciplines such as Dispersion (optics), as well as fields such as Normal mode, Attenuation and Metamaterial, all of which overlap with one another.
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 International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (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 International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (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 2022 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 42.86% of all publications and 57.14% 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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
