《材料雜志：設(shè)計(jì)與應(yīng)用》是材料領(lǐng)域基礎(chǔ)研究與應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域交流的論壇。包括金屬材料、聚合物、復(fù)合材料和陶瓷在內(nèi)的整個(gè)材料工程和技術(shù)領(lǐng)域都在討論中。此外，金屬基復(fù)合材料和陶瓷基復(fù)合材料也是投資組合的一部分。該雜志與材料研究所聯(lián)合出版，旨在為材料工程界提供高質(zhì)量的基礎(chǔ)論文，同時(shí)考慮到特定的設(shè)計(jì)方面和應(yīng)用。應(yīng)用范圍涵蓋了機(jī)械工程的各個(gè)領(lǐng)域，包括：汽車、鐵路、航空航天、壓力容器技術(shù)、渦輪技術(shù)和發(fā)電。聽眾是那些對(duì)材料工程研究特別感興趣，并希望看到材料在工程背景中的適當(dāng)應(yīng)用的人。因此，讀者群包括對(duì)材料感興趣的機(jī)械工程師和對(duì)材料的預(yù)期應(yīng)用感興趣的材料研究人員。機(jī)械工程領(lǐng)域涉及工業(yè)、研究和學(xué)術(shù)領(lǐng)域，涵蓋基礎(chǔ)力學(xué)到熱力學(xué)和流體力學(xué)的應(yīng)用。

The Journal of Materials: Design and Applications is a forum for communication of fundamental research and application areas in the field of materials. The whole range of materials engineering and technology is addressed, including metallic materials, polymers, composites and ceramics. In addition, metal matrix composites and ceramic matrix composites are part of the portfolio. Published in association with the Institute of Materials, the Journal aims to provide the materials engineering community with high quality fundamental papers in the area taking into account particular design aspects and applications. The applications cover the whole spectrum of mechanical engineering including: automobile; railway; aerospace; pressure vessel technology; turbine technology and power generation generally. The audience is those with a particular interest in materials engineering research and with a desire to see appropriate application of the materials in an engineering context. The readership therefore includes mechanical engineers with an interest in materials and materials researchers with an interest in the prospective application of their material. The mechanical engineering field covers those in industry, research and academia covering fundamental mechanics through to thermodynamics and fluid mechanics applications.
