Journal of Computational Applied Mechanics (JCAMECH)

About the Journal

The Journal of Computational Applied Mechanics (JCAMECH) is an international research journal, which publishes top-level scientific works. The journal aims to promote the international exchange of new knowledge and recent development information in all aspects of computational and applied mechanics. Manuscripts must be submitted only in English and should be written according to sound grammar and proper terminology.

The manuscript has to be prepared according to the journal format. The MS Word journal template can be downloaded here.  All the references have to be prepared by the Endnote software. The Endnote style of the journal can be downloaded here. It is also substantially recommended that the authors refer to recent references in the last 10 years rather than old and out-of-date ones.

The specified times on the journal's website are based on previous experiences and the average time required for each stage of the publishing process. However, it may take different amounts of time for a specific article. Some factors that can cause variations in time include:

1. Length of the article: Articles with longer lengths may require more time for review and editing.

2. Number of articles: If the journal receives a large number of articles, acceptance and publication times may increase.

3. Number of reviewers: If a large number of reviewers are needed for an article, the review process may take longer.

4. Workload of reviewers: In some cases, reviewers may have heavy workloads that can lead to delays in the review process.

5. Holidays and organization closures: In some instances, holidays and organization closures can cause delays in the publishing process.

6. The editorial team's opinions: If the editorial team determines that an article is not suitable for an issue of the journal and should be printed in subsequent issues, the article publishing process will also be lengthy.

7. The English editing process: If the process of literary editing of the article takes longer, the time for the article publishing process will also be longer.

8. The plagiarism check process: If the process of investigating plagiarism takes longer, the article publishing process will also be longer.

Ultimately, until the final acceptance or publication of an article is confirmed, the specified times are considered estimates and may change.
