Open Access Mechanics Journals
A list of Open Access Mechanics journals for you to publish your manuscript in
Mechanics is science concerned with physical bodies subjected to forces or displacements
Open Access journals publish papers that are free to the reader to download. OA papers have undergone peer review and are not more or less stringent than papers in closed journals — the main difference is in the business model.
Our team made this list of Mechanics Open Access journals with the aim to help you to decide where to publish your Mechanics manuscript.
We have thousands of high-impact factor Mechanics journals in our list.Rather than displaying just the most relevant Mechanics journals, we have made an in-depth list of all the open accesss Mechanics journals. Use our different columns — number of papers, number of citations, and relevance — to find the best Mechanics venue for your manuscript.
The DOAJ columns refers to the The Directory of Open Access Journals, a list of open access journals, maintained by Infrastructure Services for Open Access.
There are certain criteria a journal must meet to be indexed by DOAJ, and thus inclusion in the DOAJ index is seen by scholars as a mark of quality.
All the open access Mechanics journals in this list are indexed in OA.mg.
If you spot any mistakes in this table of Mechanics OA journals, don’t hesitate to send us an email.
