This journal has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research

in Mechanics of Solids and Structures as a field of Applied Science and Engineering. It

publishes papers on all aspects of the field from the more classical problems of structural

analysis to mechanics of solids continual ly interacting with other media and including

fracture flow wave propagation heat transfer thermal effects in solids optimum design

methods model analysis structural topology and numerical techniques. Interest extends

to both inorganic and organic solids and structures. The emphasis is placed on contribu-

tions analytical experimental and numerical which appear to be of permanent interest to

research workers and engineers in the field.
