The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 2.2 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00034 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.46 SJR: 0.333 SNIP: 0.606 CiteScore™:: 3.1 H-Index: 31

Abstract

This is a special issue based on the mini-symposium entitled "Bio- and Nano-Mechanics and Materials with Applications" for the 9th World Congress on Computational Mechanics.

KEY WORDS: Multiscale Modeling and Simulation, Nano Mechanics, Nano Materials


FOREWORD

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are rapidly changing the daily life of human beings in the global economy. In particular, nano-mechanics and materials are playing increasingly important roles in biological and biomedical applications, such as biocompatible implant materials and novel materials for drug delivery. This new generation of bio-materials have unique structures and properties and could revolutionize not only medical practice in particular but also life science and engineering in general. Understanding the behavior of nano- and bio-systems is of great scientific interest and technological importance, which requires concurrent development of experiments, theory, modeling, and simulation. The aim of this mini-symposium was to provide an exposition of the current state of the art on model-based simulation of diverse responses of nano-and bio-systems. We particularly welcomed contributions highlighting the integration of modeling, simulations, and experiments in bio- and nano-mechanics and materials with applications. Presentations were solicited in all the subtopics related to bio- and nano-mechanics and materials with applications, which included but were not limited to the following:

  1. Applications of nano- and bio-mechanics and materials
  2. Impact of nanomaterials on human safety and health
  3. Multiscale modeling and simulation procedures
  4. Nano-scale experiments in life science and engineering
  5. Nanomaterials for drug delivery and treatment
  6. Compatibility of nanomaterials with biological materials
  7. Reliability of nanomaterials for biomedical applications
  8. The interface between nano- and bio-mechanics

This special issue is a collection of the full papers selected based on a peer-reviewed process after the WCCM 2010. We hope that the special issue and subsequent ones in the future could promote the international collaboration in research and education, and make an immediate contribution to the progress of nanoscience and nanotechnology by disseminating the new findings and integrating different team efforts among active researchers and educators.

We would like to thank the authors for their excellent contributions, the reviewers for their discerning comments on the papers, and the publisher for making this special issue possible.
