Mechanics Research Communications publishes as rapidly as possible manuscripts of high standards but restricted length. It aims
at providing a fast means of communication and of exchange of ideas among workers in Mechanics, at offering an effective method of bringing
new results quickly to the public and at establishing an
informal vehicle for the discussion of ideas that may still be in the formative
stages.
Mechanics Research Communications will publish both scientific and applied contributions. In either category,
papers may be one of four types:
1. Complete: Self-contained, normally about six pages long. The essence and motivation of the
communication must be made clear in a first section, called Introduction, of length appropriate to that of the entire article
and written so as to be understandable to the majority of workers in Mechanics. No further abstract is required. The remainder
of the contribution may, of course, be addressed to specialists.
2. Abbreviated: Also about six pages long; the remarks under
1. apply here as well.
3. Work in Progress and Preliminary Results: Accounts of current research and of tentative results even
if of a
conjectural but well documented nature, about two pages in length.
4. Letters: Not over one page long usually dealing
with previously printed contributions or with matters of general
interest to the Mechanics community, to be written in non-aggressive
language. After acceptance of letters
referring to previous communications, the authors of the original articles will be informed and
allowed four
weeks time to submit a written reply. The letter and the reply will be printed simultaneously.
In addition, special
features may be added from time to time.
The field of Mechanics will be understood in a broad sense, no attempt being made to limit
it or to provide it with a
precise definition. It will encompass the behavior of fluids, solids, particles, continua, rigid bodies,
mechanisms,
systems and so forth. It will include theoretical as well as applied and experimental researches, whether aimed at
fundamental
scientific advances or at practical engineering results.
