Problems of Strength and Plasticity / Problemy prochnosti i plastichnosti

Topical content of the Journal

The journal is focused on the results of research work in the field of applied mechanics of deformable systems and media.

The journal publishes original scientific articles on development of modern mathematical models and problems solving methods in mechanics of deformable systems and media, theoretical and experimental research, computer modeling and numerical behavior analysis of  machines, structures and buildings affected by the physical nature.

The main attention is paid to the development and construction methods for analyzing complex structural forms of deformable systems taking into account the physical and geometric nonlinearity of materials, the research of the failure processes in materials and structures, investigations of the static and dynamic behavior of real elastoplastic structures, taking into account their creep.

The journal is intended for scientists and specialists engaged in application of research results in design and behavior analysis of structures, machines, mechanisms, instruments and equipment in operational and beyond design conditions, as well as for graduates and undergraduates specializing in mechanics of solid deformable bodies and machine dynamics.

The Problems of Strength and Plasticity journal publishes the results of scientific investigations in the form of articles and reviews in the following specialty group: mechanics (01.02.00)
