Both deterministic and stochastic approaches are fostered. Contributions pertaining to both established and emerging fields are encouraged.

International Journal of Solids and Structures

ISSN: 0020-7683
5 Year impact factor: 3.5
Impact factor: 3.4

The International Journal of Solids and Structures has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research in Mechanics of Solids and Structures as a field of Applied Science and Engineering. It fosters thus the exchange of ideas among workers in different parts of the world and also among workers who emphasize different aspects of the foundations and applications of the field.Standing as it does at the cross-roads of Materials Science, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Physics and Engineering Design, the Mechanics of Solids and Structures is experiencing considerable growth as a result of recent technological advances. The Journal, by providing an international medium of communication, is encouraging this growth and is encompassing all aspects of the field from the more classical problems of structural analysis to mechanics of solids continually interacting with other media and including fracture, flow, wave propagation, heat transfer, thermal effects in solids, optimum design methods, model analysis, structural topology and numerical techniques. Interest extends to both inorganic and organic solids and structures.The emphasis is placed on contributions, analytical, experimental and numerical, which appear to be of permanent interest to research workers and engineers in the field. If furthering knowledge in the area of principal concern of the Journal, papers of primary interest to the constitutive disciplines of Materials Science, Mathematics, Physics and Engineering Design may be published. Papers which are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures, even though possibly containing new numerical or experimental data, will generally not be published.When outstanding advances are made in existing areas or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered by the Editors.No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written papers are published. Brief articles are considered on the basis of technical merit. Discussions of previously published papers are welcome.

Journal of Fluids and Structures

ISSN: 0889-9746
5 Year impact factor: 3.5
Impact factor: 3.4

The Journal of Fluids and Structures publishes original papers on all aspects of the interaction between fluids and solids. Studies of single-physics fluid or solid mechanics problems are welcome too, provided they are motivated by and directly contribute to the understanding of an associated fluid-structure interaction problem.The journal publishes theoretical, computational and experimental studies that provide new insight into the underlying physics and/or present novel methodologies. Studies dealing with specific engineering applications are welcome, provided they address clearly posed questions that are of wider interest, i.e. go beyond mere case studies.Authors must clearly identify the novelty of their work and should provide conclusions that put the specific result obtained in their study into a wider context.Numerical studies must include a clear assessment of associated errors via the provision of suitable mesh/timestep convergence studies; similarly, experimental studies must provide an assessment of experimental uncertainties.The journal has no hard page limits but expects authors to provide a brief statement justifying the length of their manuscript if it is close to or exceeds 25 pages (including figures and tables, both embedded in the text, which should be typeset with a reasonable layout, e.g. 10 or 12 pt font size and standard font).

The Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics publishes research on flowing soft matter systems. Submissions in all areas of flowing complex fluids are welcomed, including polymer melts and solutions, suspensions, colloids, surfactant solutions, biological fluids, gels, liquid crystals and granular materials. Flow problems relevant to microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip, nanofluidics, biological flows, geophysical flows, industrial processes and other applications are of interest.Subjects considered suitable for the journal include the following (not necessarily in order of importance):Theoretical, computational and experimental studies of naturally or technologically relevant flow problems where the non-Newtonian nature of the fluid is important in determining the character of the flow. We seek in particular studies that lend mechanistic insight into flow behavior in complex fluids or highlight flow phenomena unique to complex fluids. Examples includeInstabilities, unsteady and turbulent or chaotic flow characteristics in non-Newtonian fluids,Multiphase flows involving complex fluids,Problems involving transport phenomena such as heat and mass transfer and mixing, to the extent that the non-Newtonian flow behavior is central to the transport phenomena,Novel flow situations that suggest the need for further theoretical study,Practical situations of flow that are in need of systematic theoretical and experimental research. Such issues and developments commonly arise, for example, in the polymer processing, petroleum, pharmaceutical, biomedical and consumer product industries.This list is meant to be representative, not exhaustive.Mathematical analysis of equations relevant to non-Newtonian flowsNumerical methods suited to problems in flowing complex fluidsDevelopment of rheological constitutive equations for non-Newtonian fluids from both continuum and microstructural starting points.Experimental assessment of predictions from rheological constitutive equations.Devices and methodologies for rheological measurements at both macro- and microscopic levels, including microrheology.Overly abstract, formalistic or artificial developments will not be welcomed.

Nonlinear Analysis: Hybrid Systems

ISSN: 1751-570X
5 Year impact factor: 3.8
Impact factor: 3.7

A journal of IFAC, the International Federation of Automatic ControlNonlinear Analysis: Hybrid Systems (NAHS) welcomes all original research papers on mathematical concepts, tools, and techniques from control theory, computer science, and applied mathematics for the modelling, analysis and design of hybrid dynamical systems, i.e., systems involving the interplay between discrete and continuous dynamic behaviors.Hybrid systems are ubiquitous in many branches of engineering and science as they can model broad ranges of dynamical systems. In particular, in cyber-physical systems, which integrate sensing, computation, control and communication (cyber) parts into physical objects and infrastructures, hybrid systems play an instrumental role. The description of the behavior of the cyber parts often calls for discrete models (automata, finite-state machines, switching logic, etc.), while the physical (thermal, mechanical, electrical, physical, biological) parts are well captured by continuous modelling formalisms (e.g., differential equations), thereby naturally resulting in hybrid system models such as (stochastic) hybrid automata, timed automata, switched systems, impulsive systems, jump-flow models, piecewise affine systems, non-smooth systems, etc. Also, many physical phenomena can often be well described by non-smooth or hybrid models, including mechanical systems with impacts and friction (walking robots), switched power converters and biological systems (e.g., firing neuron models).Hybrid systems can exhibit very rich dynamics and their analysis calls for new and strong theorical foundations to guarantee their stability, safety, functionality, and performance. The development of systematic methods for efficient and reliable design of hybrid systems is therefore a key challenge on the crossroads of control theory and computer science. It is currently of high interest to control engineers, computer scientists and mathematicians in research institutions as well as in many industrial sectors.Contributions to Nonlinear Analysis: Hybrid Systems are invited in all areas pertaining to hybrid dynamical systems including: Modeling, modeling languages and specification;Analysis, computability and complexity;Stochastic hybrid systems;Impulsive systems;Formal verification and abstraction;Optimization and controller synthesis;Control over communication networks including self- and event-triggered control;Network Science and multi-agent systems;Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control;Simulation, implementation and tools;Safety, security, privacy, and resilience for cyber-physical systems;Planning and integrated control in dynamical systems.Contributions on applications of hybrid dynamical systems methods are also encouraged. Fields of interest include: process and manufacturing industries, automotive and mobility systems, avionics, communication networks and networked control systems, energy and power systems, transportation networks, cyber-physical and embedded systems, (synthetic) biology and biomedical applications, life sciences, safety-critical systems, mobile and autonomous robotics, and other related areas.
