《力學研究通訊》盡快出版同行評審的高標準但篇幅有限的手稿。其目的是提供：?快速溝通方式?機械工人之間的思想交流?快速向公眾帶來新成果的有效方法?討論的非正式工具?可能仍處于形成階段的想法力學領域將被理解為包括連續統、流體、固體、顆粒及其混合物的行為。提交的材料必須對力學領域做出強有力的、新穎的貢獻，理想情況下，應集中在涉及理論、實驗和/或應用研究領域的當前問題上，最好是在副編輯委員會所涵蓋的廣泛專業知識范圍內。這些方面的偏差應事先與總編輯討論。

Mechanics Research Communications publishes, as rapidly as possible, peer-reviewed manuscripts of high standards but restricted length. It aims to provide:? a fast means of communication? an exchange of ideas among workers in mechanics? an effective method of bringing new results quickly to the public? an informal vehicle for the discussion? of ideas that may still be in the formative stagesThe field of Mechanics will be understood to encompass the behavior of continua, fluids, solids, particles and their mixtures. Submissions must contain a strong, novel contribution to the field of mechanics, and ideally should be focused on current issues in the field involving theoretical, experimental and/or applied research, preferably within the broad expertise encompassed by the Board of Associate Editors. Deviations from these areas should be discussed in advance with the Editor-in-Chief.
