“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters is Q2 in all 8 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Computational Mechanics: Q2, #28 of 99), with SJR 0.598 (Scimago) and an h-index of 47 (OpenAlex). Listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked
Is Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters?
Papers in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters are cited about 3.4 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 47. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters is Q2 in all 8 of its subject categories. By category: Computational Mechanics: Q2, #28 of 99; Ocean Engineering: Q2, #37 of 117; Aerospace Engineering: Q2, #44 of 159; Environmental Engineering: Q2, #88 of 227; Mechanics of Materials: Q2, #130 of 412; Civil and Structural Engineering: Q2, #133 of 418; Biomedical Engineering: Q2, #161 of 328; Mechanical Engineering: Q2, #197 of 696. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters is cited about 3.4 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 47.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
What is the article processing charge (APC) to publish in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters?
Article processing charge (APC): $1,200 per accepted article (DOAJ). Fee waivers are available. The exact charge can vary by article type and any fee waiver, so confirm the current amount on the journal's own site.
How long does Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters take to publish a paper?
Submission to publication for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters takes about ~17 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters.
