Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters (TAML) aims to publish original, cutting-edge research in theoretical, computational, and experimental mechanics. Particular emphasis is placed on original contributions in interdisciplinary and emerging areas that bridge fundamental mechanics with its applications across diverse scientific and engineering disciplines. These include, but are not limited to, aeronautics, astrophysics, biomedicine, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, marine and civil engineering, materials science, manufacturing, meteorology, acoustics, combustion, explosion and shock.

TAML is dedicated to the expeditious dissemination of high-caliber scholarly work. It publishes letters, perspectives, full-length research articles, and review articles. By prioritizing rapid yet rigorous peer review, the journal ensures that significant advancements in the field are made accessible to the global research community in a timely manner.

Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters (TAML) was launched in 2011 and is sponsored by Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IMCAS) and Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (CSTAM). It is the official publication of the Beijing International Center for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (BICTAM).

In January 2021 TAML became a gold open access journal, but it continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, and rigorous peer review. As an open access journal with no subscription charges, an Article Publishing Charge (APC) is payable by the author or research funder - upon acceptance to cover the costs associated with publication. More information can be found here. All papers published in TAML are open access, so permanently and freely available on ScienceDirect.
