Aims & Scope

Experimental Techniques is a peer-reviewed journal focusing on advanced technical innovations, sophisticated applications and practical developments in experimental mechanics and dynamics. The journal focuses on new experimental techniques that advance the state-of-the-art in measurement and experimental data analysis technologies in structural mechanics and dynamics. Furthers understanding of static and dynamic behavior of materials, structures and systems. Develops and applies hybrid experimental-analytical methods in structural mechanics and dynamics. Provides advanced physical observations to improve and assess new analytical and computational approaches. Submit your creative efforts on developing a wide range of techniques.

Frequently asked questions about Experimental Techniques

Is Experimental Techniques a predatory journal?

PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Experimental Techniques: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list. Indexing is a transparency signal, not a guarantee — always confirm fit and policies before submitting.

What is the impact factor of Experimental Techniques?

Experimental Techniques is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 1.32.

Is Experimental Techniques indexed in Scopus and Web of Science?

Experimental Techniques is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus.
