Aims & Scope

Strength of Materials is a peer-reviewed journal focusing on the strength of materials and structures under various mechanical and thermal loading conditions. Emphasizes actual operating conditions, including extreme temperatures, pressures, and corrosive environment. Investigates materials subjected to different types of mechanical and thermal loadings. Provides insight on limiting strength criteria of materials, nanomaterials, and structures. Gives consideration to problems of crack resistance and theories of failure. A translation of the Ukrainian journal Problemy Mitsnosti.
