Description:
This international journal provides a medium of communication between engineers and scientists engaged in research and development within
the fields of knowledge embraced by IFToMM, the
International Federation for the Promotion
of Mechanism and Machine Science.
The main topics are:
• Design Theory and Methodology;
•
Haptics
and Human-Machine-Interfaces;
•
Robotics,
Mechatronics and
Micro-Machines;
•
Mechanisms,
Mechanical
Transmissions and
Machines;
• Kinematics, Dynamics, and Control of
Mechanical Systems;
• Applications to
Bioengineering and
Molecular Chemistry.
Methodologically, this includes theoretical, experimental, and/or historical
approaches, along with their practical application, including education. Substantially, the journal aims at covering all subjects related
to mechanisms and machines in general, such as: design theory and methodology, kinematics of mechanisms, rotor dynamics, computational
kinematics, multibody dynamics, dynamics of machinery, nonlinear vibrations, linkages and cams, gearing and transmissions, transportation
machinery, control and reliability of mechanical systems, including hydraulic and pneumatic systems, experimental test techniques, robots
and robotic technologies, mechatronics, micromachines, human-machine interfaces, haptics, among others. Prospective fields of application
of mechanism and machine science to other scientific areas such as bioengineering and molecular chemistry are also welcome.
