The journal mostly deals with topics like Solid mechanics, Finite element method, Structural engineering, Composite material and Mechanics. While the primary focus in the journal is Solid mechanics, it also dissects topics surrounding Engineering design process and Mathematical optimization as a whole. International Journal of Mechanics and Materials in Design focuses on Finite element method as well as the interrelated topic of Geometry.
The research on Structural engineering featured in it combines topics in other fields like Vibration and Plasticity. Topics like Composite number, Piezoelectricity, Viscoelasticity, Nanocomposite and Stress (mechanics) are tackled as part of the discussions on Composite material. While Mechanics is the focus of International Journal of Mechanics and Materials in Design, it also provided insights into the studies of Beam (structure) and Equations of motion, Classical mechanics.
Timoshenko beam theory is a focus of the Beam (structure) works in it. The main emphasis of International Journal of Mechanics and Materials in Design is the research on Material properties, emphasizing the topic of Functionally graded material. The featured Nonlinear system research is covered under the field of Control theory.
Solid mechanics, Structural engineering, Composite material, Vibration and Mechanics are the main subjects of interest in the most cited papers. Issues in Solid mechanics were discussed in the most cited articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Material properties, Functionally graded material, Finite element method, Boundary value problem and Nonlinear system. The most cited papers tackle studies in Computer simulation and the interrelated subject of Stress intensity factor to gain insights into Structural engineering.
The journal facilitates discussions on Solid mechanics, Finite element method, Mechanics, Vibration and Mathematical analysis. The journal focused on Solid mechanics research conducted under the discipline of Composite material. Topics in Finite element method were tackled in line with various other fields like Grinding, Plasticity, Hinge, Cantilever and Trajectory.
Issues in Mechanics were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Stiffness, Beam (structure), Material properties, Shear (sheet metal) and Transient response. It holds forums on Vibration that merges themes from other disciplines such as Contact analysis, Displacement (vector), Deflection (engineering) and Friction drive. In addition to Structural engineering research, it aims to explore topics under Viscoelasticity and Engineering design process.
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 Mechanics and Materials in Design (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 Mechanics and Materials in Design (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, 1.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 17.24% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.07% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.69% of all publications and 50.00% 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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
