Journal Guide

International Applied Mechanics provides up-to-date coverage of studies on solid mechanics, general mechanics, and the mechanics of structural members (shells and plates), with reference to the stress–strain state, stability, dynamics, and wave propagation. Areas of special interest include the mechanics of composites, the mechanics of residual stresses, the mechanics of structures interacting with fluids and gases, etc.Papers published in the journal are also concerned with stability of motion, nonlinear dynamics, and rigid-body mechanics. The journal deals with practical problems commonly encountered by mechanical engineers working in the aerospace, shipbuilding, turbomachinery, and construction industries. International Applied Mechanics is a translation of Prikladnaya Mekhanika. The Russian-language edition is published and copyrighted by the S. P. Timoshenko Institute of Mechanics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The translation is published under an agreement with the Ukrainian Authors Agency. The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.All articles are peer-reviewed.

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology provides a forum for experimental and clinical research in modern molecular and cellular allergology and immunology. Appearing monthly, the journal publishes original work in the fields of allergy, immunopathology, immunogenetics, immunopharmacology, immunoendocrinology, tumor immunology, mucosal immunity, transplantation, and immunology of infectious and connective tissue diseases. In addition to original papers, it features short communications, reviews, mini-reviews, commentaries, and opinions. A team of internationally renowned and committed editors guarantees a fair review process, high scientific quality, and fast dissemination of significant and novel work.

International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health publishes Editorials, Review Articles, Original Articles, and Letters to the Editor. It welcomes any manuscripts dealing with occupational or ambient environmental problems, with a special interest in research at the interface of occupational health and clinical medicine. The scope ranges from Biological Monitoring to Dermatology, from Fibers and Dust to Human Toxicology, from Nanomaterials and Ultra-fine Dust to Night- and Shift Work, from Psycho-mental Distress and Burnout to Vibrations. A complete list of topics can be found on the right-hand side under For authors and editors. In addition, all papers should be based on present-day standards and relate to Clinical and epidemiological studies on morbidity and mortality Clinical epidemiological studies on the parameters relevant to the estimation of health risks Human experimental studies on environmental health effects. Animal experiments are only acceptable if relevant to pathogenic asp

International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation publishes original research papers and reviews on the biological causes of deterioration or degradation.– The causes may be macro– or microbiological, whose origins may be aerial, aquatic, or terrestrial.– The effects may include corrosion, fouling, rotting, decay, infection, disfigurement, toxification, weakening or processes that liquefy, detoxify, or mineralize.– The materials affected may include natural, synthetic or refined materials [such as metals, hydrocarbons and oils, foodstuffs and beverages, pharmaceuticals, cellulose and wood, plastics and polymers, fibres, paper, leather, waste materials or any other material of commercial importance]; and structures or systems [such as buildings, works of art, processing equipment, etc.] as well as hazardous wastes, and includes environmental and occupational health aspects resulting from the activities of the biological agents described above.Papers on all aspects of cause, mode of action, treatment, protection and prevention, analysis and testing, detoxification, upgrading, commercial implications, biocides and substitutes and related areas are welcome. However, papers that are strictly related to engineering aspects of biotechnological processes and those that aim at developing or assessing mathematical-based predictive models used in the designing of biotechnological processes are excluded.International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation is the Official Journal of the International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Society.For more information visit the International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Society website.

International Biomechanics provides a high-quality platform for researchers working on biomechanics topics to publish their work globally under a fully Open Access model.
