Periodicals

Smart Materials and Structures - Journal - Dedicated to technical advances in smart materials and structures, this journal covers both basic and applied research in physics, engineering and materials science and also applications in the aerospace, automotive, civil, electrical and optical engineering industries.

Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures - Searchable EnThe first international journal devoted to the growing technology
of smart materials and structures. A major forum for new research and developments in materials, sensors, actuators, controls, structures, optics and electromagnetics for smart materials. Click here for publisher as the direct link may expire.

Journal of Sound & Vibration - As an established international journal, the Journal of Sound and Vibration is devoted to the prompt publication of original papers on experimental and theoretical work concerning all aspects of sound and vibration. Articles of current interest that transcend the usual specialization boundaries are particularly encouraged as well as introduction to, or reviews of, new fields of research.

Sound & Vibration Magazine - Sound and Vibration is a practical engineering magazine circulated to individually qualified personnel who are concerned with noise and vibration control, automotive NVH, dynamic measurements, modal analysis, machinery reliability, acoustical engineering and dynamic testing. Qualified individuals perform: design engineering, testing and evaluation, management, research and development, consulting and engineering services, equipment reliability/PM/PdM, occupational safety and health and other functions related to the fields served.

Journal of Shock and Vibration

Journal of Vibration and Control- provides a forum for original research on vibration phenomena occurring in the mechanical, structural, aeronautical, electrical, materials, chemical, control, ocean, and environmental fields. Articles address analytical, computational, and experimental analyses of such topics as determinate and random vibrations, fluid, solid and dynamic control, structural control, vibration control in machinery, and adaptive and smart structures.
