應用仿生學和生物力學出版的論文，尋求了解生物系統的力學，或利用生物體的功能作為設計新設備的靈感。此類系統可作為人工替代品或輔助設備，用于其原始生物學目的，或在完全不同的環境中使用。除了最初的研究外，應用仿生學和生物力學也發表了重點評論文章，這些文章審查了技術的現狀，確定了新的趨勢，并為發展領域提出了未來的方向。

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics publishes papers that seek to understand the mechanics of biological systems, or that use the functions of living organisms as inspiration for the design new devices. Such systems may be used as artificial replacements, or aids, for their original biological purpose, or be used in a different setting altogether.As well as original research, Applied Bionics and Biomechanics also publishes focused review articles that examine the state of the art, identify emerging trends, and suggest future directions for developing fields.
