Journal of Elasticity facilitates discussions on Mathematical analysis, Classical mechanics, Geometry, Isotropy and Mechanics. The research on Mathematical analysis featured in it combines topics in other fields like Elasticity (economics), Linear elasticity and Nonlinear system. Issues in Classical mechanics were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Wave propagation, Constitutive equation and Anisotropy.
The journal facilitates discussions on Geometry that incorporate concepts from other fields like Stress (mechanics) and Plane stress. Journal of Elasticity addresses concerns in Isotropy which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Compressibility and Hyperelastic material.
The journal publications are organized to reinforce research efforts on Mathematical analysis, Classical mechanics, Mechanics, Geometry and Isotropy. The studies on Mathematical analysis discussed at the most cited papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Elasticity (economics), Linear elasticity and Tensor. Issues in Classical mechanics were discussed in the most cited articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Compressibility, Hyperelastic material, Nonlinear system and Constitutive equation.
Journal of Elasticity aims to foster the development of research in Mathematical analysis, Nonlinear system, Constitutive equation, Mechanics and Boundary value problem. Topics in Mathematical analysis explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Elasticity (economics), Linear elasticity, Boundary (topology), Surface (mathematics) and Bending. In addition to Nonlinear system research, Journal of Elasticity aims to explore topics under Regularization (mathematics), Stress–strain curve, Existence theorem and Singularity.
It holds forums on Constitutive equation that merges themes from other disciplines such as Fiber, Polynomial (hyperelastic model), Scars and Applied mathematics. The Mechanics works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Plane (geometry), Hydrostatic equilibrium, Shearing (manufacturing) and Anisotropy. Singular integral, Flexural strength, Integral transform, Measure (mathematics) and Asymptotic analysis are some topics wherein Boundary value problem research discussed in Journal of Elasticity have an impact.
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 Journal of Elasticity (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 Journal of Elasticity (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, 8.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 10.87% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 17.39% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.57% of all publications and 52.17% 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.
