The International Journal of Fracture is an outlet for original analytical, numerical and experimental contributions which provide improved understanding of the mechanisms of micro and macro fracture in all materials, and their engineering implications.The journal presents papers from engineers and scientists working in various aspects of fracture, as well as occasional review papers in these as well as other areas. Innovative and in-depth engineering applications of fracture theory are also encouraged.In addition, the journal publishes concise Letters in Fracture and Micromechanics which serve the Journal's Objective. Letters include brief presentations of a new idea, concept or method; new experimental observations or methods of significance; short notes of quality that do not amount to full length papers; discussion of previously published work in the Journal, and Letters Errata.

國際斷裂雜志是對原始分析、數(shù)值和實驗貢獻的一個出口，它提供了對所有材料微觀和宏觀斷裂機理及其工程意義的更好理解。該雜志發(fā)表了工程師和科學家在骨折各個方面的論文，以及在這些領(lǐng)域和其他領(lǐng)域偶爾發(fā)表的評論論文。創(chuàng)新和深入的工程應用斷裂理論也受到鼓勵。此外，該雜志還出版了簡明的斷裂和微觀力學方面的信件，為該雜志的目標服務。信件包括對一個新的想法、概念或方法的簡要介紹；新的實驗觀察或有意義的方法；不等于全文論文的質(zhì)量簡短說明；對雜志上先前發(fā)表的工作的討論，以及信件的勘誤表。
