Aims & Scope
The Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials aims at publishing selected original research contributions devoted to all natural and modern engineering materials, especially covering the following aspects, among others: micromechanics and nanomechanics of materials, relationship between the structure and mechanical properties, size effects and length/time scale transitions, material instabilities, fatigue, creep, and fracture, processing technologies and impact on mechanical properties and constitutive modelling. Articles on cutting-edge theory, simulations and experiments – used as tools for revealing novel material properties and designing new devices for structural, thermo-chemo-mechanical, and opto-electro-mechanical applications – are encouraged.

Ethics & Quality
Think.Check.Submit Compliance
A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
Publication & Citation Trend
Source: OpenAlex · Each year’s green bar = citations earned by that year’s papers, counted to date — so recent years look lower simply because their papers haven’t had time to be cited yet.
