Editorial information

Serving the multidisciplinary materials community through original contributions to modelling methods and applications, the journal covers properties, structure and behaviour of all classes of materials at scales from the atomic to the macroscopic.

Bibliographies

The following bibliographies, all compiled by Jaroslav Mackerle, (Linköping Institute of Technology, Sweden) have been published in Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering and are collected here. They provide a comprehensive guide to the research papers and conference proceedings published since 1976 in the field of finite-element analysis in different areas of materials science and engineering, and are a useful resource for researchers wanting an overview of a field, as well as those wishing to refer others for a general introduction to a particular subject.

The bibliographies and addenda also feature in MAKEBASE, a database containing up-to-date information about 1700 finite element/boundary element programs and approximately 130,000 literature references.

When citing any of these bibliographies or addenda, please ensure that the original MSMSE articles are fully referenced.
