Editor / Reviewer

I am currently an associate editor for Mechanics Based Design of Structures and Machines, an international journal that publishes new fundamental and interdisciplinary contributions of mechanics and mechanics-based design in emerging application areas such as robotics, automotive, space structures, smart structures, micromachines, high-speed computing, numerical methods, structural optimization, variational methods, stability, fatigue and fracture mechanics, plasticity, and related basic applied mechanics and mechanics-based design.

I have been a guest editor for a special issue of Multibody System Dynamics, Vol. 55, issue 1-2, 2022: Co-Simulation in Multibody System Dynamics. This thematic issue presents novel developments in co-simulation and solver coupling methods for mechanical and multiphysics problems.

    I have reviewed papers for the following scientific journals:

- Acta Mechanica Sinica - Advances in Mechanical Engineering - Applied Mathematical Modelling - Applied Sciences - Archive of Applied Mechanics - ASME Journal of Applied Mechanics - ASME Journal of Computational and Nonlinear Dynamics - ASME Journal of Mechanical Design - ASME Journal of Mechanisms and Robotics - Automation in Construction - Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering - Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering - Engineering Computations - Engineering with Computers - Expert Systems with Applications - IEEE Access - IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters - IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics - IEEE Transactions on Robotics - International Journal of Non-Linear Mechanics - Journal of Aerospace Engineering - Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics
