材料科學(xué)與工程A提供了一種國際媒體，用于出版受材料基本特性、加工歷史、微觀結(jié)構(gòu)和工作環(huán)境影響的材料承載能力相關(guān)的理論和實驗研究。向材料科學(xué)和工程A提交的適當(dāng)材料應(yīng)包括影響材料微觀結(jié)構(gòu)-強(qiáng)度關(guān)系的科學(xué)和/或工程因素，并報告機(jī)械性能的變化。請注意，該期刊的目標(biāo)和范圍最近已更新。該雜志將不再考慮或發(fā)表關(guān)于混凝土和水泥基系統(tǒng)的論文，也不會發(fā)表關(guān)于聚合物和聚合物基材料的論文。此外，不鼓勵強(qiáng)調(diào)腐蝕或磨損的論文，除非它們專門論述新的機(jī)械行為或相關(guān)現(xiàn)象。

Materials Science and Engineering A provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies related to the load-bearing capacity of materials as influenced by their basic properties, processing history, microstructure and operating environment. Appropriate submissions to Materials Science and Engineering A should include scientific and/or engineering factors which affect the microstructure - strength relationships of materials and report the changes to mechanical behavior.Please be advised that the Aims and Scope for the journal has recently been updated. The journal will no longer consider or publish papers on concrete and cement-based systems nor on polymeric and polymer-based materials. In addition, papers with an emphasis on corrosion or wear are discouraged, unless they specifically address novel mechanical behavior or related phenomena.
