Strength of Materials focuses on the strength of materials and structural components subjected to different types of force and thermal loadings, the limiting strength criteria of structures, and the theory of strength of structures. Consideration is given to actual operating conditions, problems of crack resistance and theories of failure, the theory of oscillations of real mechanical systems, and calculations of the stress-strain state of structural components.

Strength of Materials is a translation of the Ukrainian journal Problemy Prochnosti, a publication of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences. The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
All articles are peer-reviewed.
