AIM and Scope
AIM
The International Journal of Mechanical Computational And Manufacturing Research is for original research in the field of Mechanical Computational And Manufacturing where Computational Mechanical And Manufacturing and/or computing is needed to solve a problem. The International Journal of Mechanical Computational and Manufacturing Research is a place for advanced research on Mechanical Computational and Manufacturing. The majority of what it puts out are reviews, regular research papers, and short communications.
The goal of the International Journal of Mechanical Computational and Manufacturing Research is to give researchers from different fields, such as engineering, a place to talk about their work (electrical, mechanical, civil, industrial). Every paper that is sent in will be looked over, and only the best ones with original ideas and research will be published. Authors are asked to publish the results of their experiments and theories with as much detail as possible so that the results can be repeated. Research proposals and ideas that are new and different are very welcome in the form of manuscripts..
