The World Journal of Mechanics (WJM) will cover the general field of mechanics including the mechanics of solids, structures and fluids and their interaction. The goal of this journal is to provide an international forum for the publication and dissemination of original work which contributes to the understanding of t…

This paper deals with vibrations of structures subjected to moving inertial loads. In literature structures are usually subjected to massless forces. In numerical applications, however, the direct influence of the inertia of a moving object is usually neglect…

A nonsimilarity analysis is performed to investigate the laminar, free convection boundary layer flow over a permeable isothermal truncated cone in the presence of a transverse magnetic field effect. A suitable set of dimensionless variables is used and non-s…

The boundary layer flow of a steady incompressible and visco-elastic fluid with short memory (obeying Walters’ B fluid model) passing over a hot vertical porous plate has been investigated in the presence of transverse magnetic field. The momentum and energy…

A novel extension to SMAC scheme is proposed for variable density flows under low Mach number approximation. The algorithm is based on a predictor—corrector time integration scheme that employs a projection method for the momentum equation. A constant-coeffic…

In this work we use the Hamilton-Jacobi theory to show that locally all the Hamiltonian systems with n degrees of freedom are equivalent. That is, there is a canonical transformation connecting two arbitrary Hamiltonian systems with the same number of degrees…

An important concern in gear design is to reduce the dynamic load and noise of gear systems. It has been found that the noise generated from gearing is basically due to gearbox vibration excited by the dynamic load. Since one of the situations that demand hig…

The paper in the introductory part reviews various definitions and interpretations of structural redundancy in mechanics. The study focuses on the general structural redundancy of systems after sequences of component failures followed by possible load redistr…

<i>Background and Purpose</i>: Rupture of vulnerable carotid atherosclerotic plaques is a major cause of stroke. Stress levels may reflect risk of rupture in patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaques. Features thought to influence the risk of plaque ruptu…

An experimental study on the effect of cut angle on circular cylinders to the drag force is performed. Six cylinders were cut at different angles and the air flow impinges perpendicular to the cut surface of the cylinder. The cut angles applied include: 0°, 3…

It is known that complex networks in nature exhibit some significant statistical features. We notice power law distributions which frequently emerge with respect to network structures of various quantities. One example is the scale-freeness which is described…

Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
Use the journal's numbered (Vancouver) reference style. Cite sources consecutively in the order they appear, and ensure every reference is complete and retrievable.
