International Journal of Applied Mechanics (IJAM)

On behalf of Imperial College Press, World Scientific Publishing Co. (Singapore) and the International Journal of Applied Mechanics (IJAM), I would like to invite you to submit an article for our forthcoming journal, which will be launched in March 2009.  Given your expertise in Mechanics, your contribution to the inaugural issues of IJAM would be most desirable in our effort to make IJAM a leading journal in its subject area.

IJAM is a quarterly journal, with aims to promote international exchange of new knowledge and recent development information in all aspects of applied mechanics. In addition to coverage of the classical branches of applied mechanics, namely solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and material science, the journal also encourages contributions from the newly emerging areas such as biomechanics, electromechanics, the mechanical behavior of advanced materials, nanomechanics, and many other inter-disciplinary research areas in which the concepts of applied mechanics are extensively applied and developed.

IJAM explores analytical, computational and experimental progresses in all the above mentioned areas. The types of papers accepted at IJAM include review articles on special topics of general interest; original research papers; notes and communications; Book reviews and other special topics of general interest in this area. Among IJAM’s editors are:

EDITORS

• Huajian GAO, Brown University, USA
• Tianjian LU, Xi’an Jiaotong University, China
• Zhigang SUO, Harvard University, USA

EXCECUTIVE-EDITORS

• Markus J. BUEHLER, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
• Nick HILL, University of Glasgow, UK.
• Zishun LIU, Institute of High Performance Computing, Singapore
• Xiaoyu LUO, University of Glasgow, UK
• Tiejun WANG, Xi’an Jiaotong University, China

IJAM also has a strong editorial board, in addition to those named above. More information about IJAM’s editorial board, guidelines for contributors, are available at our journal website.

Thank you for your kind attention and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
