About the journal
| Aims and Scope
The objective of the Journal of Mechanics is to provide an international forum to foster exchange of ideas among mechanics communities in different parts of world. The Journal of Mechanics publishes original research in all fields of theoretical and applied mechanics. The Journal especially welcomes papers that are related to recent technological advances. The contributions, which may be analytical, experimental or numerical, should be of significance to the progress of mechanics. Papers which are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures will generally not be accepted. Reports that are of technical interest are published as short articles. Review articles are published only by invitation.
Submission of Papers
Authors are encouraged to submit their original manuscripts online via the website: http://www.JMech.org.tw, where electronic submission and complete instructions for the preparation of manuscripts can be found. Alternatively, authors from North America and Europe may send their manuscripts electronically to either International Editor, Professor W. S. Chan (e-mail: chan@mae.uta.edu) or Professor Y. L. Shen (e-mail: shenyl@me.unm.edu). Please note that submission of hardcopy manuscripts by regular mail may lead to significantly delays in review and publication. If hardcopy submission is the only way available to the author, four copies of the manuscript including text figures and tables should be sent to: |

The Journal employs a peer review system in the processing of manuscripts submitted for publication. Each manuscript is sent to reviewers (usually two or more) who are experts in the related fields. Decision as to the publication of the paper is based on the opinions expressed by the reviewers and the judgment of the Editorial board. Reviewers' suggestions for the revision of the manuscript are passed on to the author(s), who is entitled to make use of them or rebut them as he or she sees fit.

Instructions to Authors
| Manuscript preparation
The papers should conform to the following instructions:
- Language: The manuscript should be written in good English. It should have been carefully checked for clarity, conciseness, correctness of grammar, and typographical errors. Manuscripts should be typed and double-spaced with ample margin on one side of 21x30 cm sheets (A4 format).
- Length: A full length paper or review including figures and tables should not normally exceed 8 published pages, and a short paper should not exceed 4 pages. For a rough estimate, count 3 manuscript pages per printed page and 4 one-column figures per printed page. Space for figures, tables, and references lists, all of which are highly variable, should be estimated by comparison to closely similar material published in the Journal.
- Format: The main divisions are suggested to be arranged as follows: 1. Title page (containing: article, title, author(s), affiliation(s), and corresponding author's address, phone number, fax number and email address); 2. Abstract (of 200 words or less); 3. Keywords (of 4 or less); 4. Main text (containing: introduction, methods of solution, results and discussion, conclusion): 5. Acknowledgements; 6. Appendices; 7. References; 8. Tables; 9. Figure captions; 10. Figures. Abstracts are not required for short papers.
- Figures: All photographs, charts and diagrams are to be referred to as "Figures". Photographs should be made on glossy papers with strong contrasts. Drawings of line figures should be carefully made with India ink on white drawing paper. The ink lines should be thick enough to be clearly visible after reduction. Lettering should be carefully and neatly made in ink with a stencil. Captions to figures should be typed consecutively on separate page(s) at the end of the paper.
- Tables: Tables should be typed as part of the text, but in such a way as to avoid confusion with the text. Authors should try to ensure that a single table does not overlay on to the next page. All tables should have headings and be numbered.
- Units: Use the international system units (SI units) is obligatory. Wherever possible, equation should be written in dimension form.
- Equations: Mathematical expressions should be consecutively numbered throughout the body of the paper at the right-hand margin in parentheses. Numbering starts anew with each appendix: Appendix A:(A1),(A2), etc., Appendix B:(B1),(B2),etc. Equation numbers mentioned in the text should be enclosed in parentheses, i.e. Eq.(1), Eqs.(1),(2).
- References: References should be indicated in square bracket according to the order of appearances in the text, i.e.,[1],[2~4]. The full list should be collected at the end of the paper in numeral order. Examples of layout of references are given below.

After acceptance
The corresponding author will be notified by the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the acceptance of the article and invited to supply an electronic version of the accepted manuscript. In the course of the production process the corresponding author will be asked to transfer the copyright of the article to the Publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information. ¡¡
Electronic manuscripts
The Journal welcomes the receipt of an electronic version of your accepted manuscript. It can be submitted on a diskette enclosed with the accepted manuscript. The name and version of the word-processing program and the type of operating system should clearly be indicated on the disk label. Please note that no deviations from the version accepted by the Editor of the Journal are permissible without the prior and explicit approval by the Editor. Such changes should be clearly indicated on an accompanying printout of the file. More detailed guidelines and further information are available from the editorial office. ¡¡
Page charges
Effective with manuscripts submitted after July 1 in 2006, a regular page charge of NT$300 (NT$500) per page will be assessed for members' (non-members') articles within 8 published pages (full length papers) or 4 published pages (technical notes). In addition, an excess page fee of NT$2,000 per each exceeding page will be charged to the author(s). Both regular and excess page charges are mandatory. ¡¡
Offprints
The corresponding author will receive 50 offprints free of charge. An offprint order form will be supplied by the Journal for ordering any additional paid offprints (in multiples of 50). | |
