International Journal of Damage Mechanics

Featuring original, peer-reviewed papers by leading specialists from around the world, the International Journal of Damage Mechanics covers new developments in the science and engineering in the field of damage mechanics of materials and structures. Damage mechanics is a clearly identified research field focused on studying the effects of various nano, micro and macro defects on the mechanical behavior of materials and structures, bridging the gap between the fields of continuum inelastic deformations and classical fracture mechanics with growing macroscopic cracks.

Devoted to the prompt publication of original papers reporting the results of experimental, theoretical and/or computational work on any aspect of research in damage mechanics, the journal provides an effective mechanism to disseminate knowledge not only within the research community but also between research laboratories and industrial design sectors.

This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

All issues of the International Journal of Damage Mechanics are available to browse online.
