International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics (IJMSD) is an open-access journal that aims to systematically reveal the vital effect of mechanical system dynamics on the whole lifetime of modern industrial equipment. The mechanical systems may vary in different scales and are integrated with electronic, electrical, optical, thermal, magnetic, acoustic, aero, fluidic systems, etc. The journal welcomes research and review articles on dynamics concerning advanced theory, modeling, computation, analysis, software, design, control, manufacturing, testing, and evaluation of general mechanical systems.
The editorial board of IJMSD consists of 35 internationally renowned experts coming from 11 countries, including 15 members of the National Academy of Science or National Academy of Engineering of eight countries, 13 Editors-in-Chief of other international peer-reviewed journals in the related fields, and 14 (in-position or former) presidents/chairmen of international academic associations.
Mechanical system dynamics is one of the pillars of almost all industries such as machinery, aero & astronautics, marine engineering, transportation, biology, etc. It is the key technology for almost all industrial equipment. It plays a significant role in leading the development of modern science and technology and receives increasing attention worldwide. The International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics (IJMSD) aims to systematically reveal the vital effect of mechanical system dynamics on the whole lifetime of modern industrial equipment. It serves as an international forum for the rapid publication of high-impact research on dynamics concerning advanced theory, modeling, computation, analysis, software, design, control, manufacturing, testing, and evaluation of general mechanical systems.
Scope and topics
The journal will publish research articles, reviews, editorials, short communications and news based on both fundamental and applied research concerning the dynamics of all kinds of mechanical systems. The systems concerned include not only various machinery and structures of different scales, but also integrated mechanical systems with multi-physics/multi-disciplinary nature. This journal emphasizes the “system” point of view and system-level tools for understanding the dynamics. It encourages papers with scientific problems emerging from practical engineering and solved by system dynamics approaches. These are the unique features and advantages of IJMSD, which are extremely significant and helpful for efficiently solving dynamics problems associated with complex mechanical systems. Investigations on more general dynamical systems such as complex fluid systems, aerodynamic systems, fractal systems, energy systems, granular materials, particle fluid, soft materials, metamaterials, and micro-/nano-particles are also welcome if they involve or contribute to the advancement of the mechanical system dynamics field.
