Frequently asked questions about Computational Particle Mechanics

Is Computational Particle Mechanics a predatory journal?

PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Computational Particle Mechanics: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list.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 Computational Particle Mechanics?

Computational Particle Mechanics 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 PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date.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 2.58.

Is Computational Particle Mechanics indexed in Scopus and Web of Science?

Computational Particle Mechanics is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus.

What is the aims and scope of Computational Particle Mechanics?

Computational Particle Mechanics focuses on the modeling and simulation of systems involving particle mechanics and methods. Covers a wide range of topics from particles as a physical unit in various media to their role in numerical methods. Welcomes applications across industries such as manufacturing, marine engineering and biomedical engineering.
