  • ISSN: 0734743X

  • International Journal of Impact Engineering (Individual Journal)

  • Impact Factor: 1.701

Description:

The International Journal of Impact Engineering, established in 1983, has as its objective the publication of original research findings related to the response of structures, bodies and materials from the exposure to impact and blast events. Pertinent areas encompass the following general topics and those associated with them:
  • Structural impact and failure
  • Energy absorbing systems
  • Terminal ballistics
  • Dynamic material behaviour and failure
  • Stress waves
  • Structural crashworthiness
  • Blast loading coupled with response of structures
  • High-speed mechanical and forming processes
  • Hazards assessments, safety and protection involving impact and blast loading
Manuscripts submitted for publication are subjected to stringent peer review and are assessed for their contribution to the scientific understanding of impact phenomena or the fundamental insight gained for engineering design in areas of high rate loading. Papers concerned primarily with the fields of mathematics, materials science or computation, with little direct relevance to impact and blast dynamics, as well as papers with purely descriptive contents will not be accepted. Manuscripts that focus on parametric studies using commercial software, unaccompanied by convincing validation, or papers on novel computational techniques without comparison with established methods or test data are also not solicited.

Papers in the International Journal of Impact Engineering should be of interest to aeronautical engineers, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, naval architects, nuclear engineers, ocean engineers, offshore engineers, transportation engineers and workers in other branches of engineering and science who are involved in various aspects of impact and blast loading.

Companion papers:
Authors should aim at submitting manuscripts that can be reviewed on their own, without assuming that preceding or subsequent related manuscripts will be published. Authors of companion papers should inform the Editor the reasons for publishing their work in multiple parts.
