Mechanics of Composite Materials

Mechanics of Composite Materials is a peer-reviewed international journal that encourages publication of original experimental and theoretical research on the mechanical properties of composite materials and their constituents including, but not limited to: 

• damage, failure, fatigue, and long-term strength; 
• methods of optimum design of materials and structures; 
• prediction of long-term properties and aging problems; 
• nondestructive testing; 
• mechanical aspects of technology; 
• mechanics of nanocomposites; 
• mechanics of biocomposites; 
• composites in aerospace and wind-power engineering; 
• composites in civil engineering and infrastructure; 
• and other composites applications.
