Note: Domestic journal scores are officially collected from annual HĐGSNN decisions across councils. International journal scores are dynamically computed according to Decision 26/QĐ-HĐGSNN based on quartile and citation metrics in the publication year.

Aims & Scope

The journal has as its objective the publication and wide electronic dissemination of innovative and consequential research in applied mechanics. IJAM welcomes high-quality original research papers in all aspects of applied mechanics from contributors throughout the world. The journal aims to promote the international exchange of new knowledge and recent development information in all aspects of applied mechanics. In addition to covering the classical branches of applied mechanics, namely solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and material science, the journal also encourages contributions from newly emerging areas such as biomechanics, electromechanics, the mechanical behavior of advanced materials, nanomechanics, and many other inter-disciplinary research areas in which the concepts of applied mechanics are extensively applied and developed.
