CrossMark

Applying the CrossMark icon is a commitment by the Journal of Mechanics of Continua and Mathematical Sciences to maintain the content published and alert readers to changes if and when they occur.

What is CrossMark?

CrossMark, a multi-publisher initiative from CrossRef, provides a standard way for readers to locate the authoritative version of a document. Journal of Mechanics of Continua and Mathematical Sciences recognizes the importance of the integrity and completeness of the scholarly record to researchers and librarians and attaches the highest importance to maintaining trust in the authority of its electronic archive. Clicking on the CrossMark icon will inform the reader of the current status of a document and may also provide additional publication record information about the document.

Corrections

Correctional representatives all have the need to produce clear and concise written directives for staff, wrongdoers, and the community. provided the issues of administrative liability, accreditation standards, case law, and the need to support professional behavior, written policy and procedure are a necessity. It is likewise the premise for staff supervision, training, and supporting protection whilst matters cross wrong. Corrections are published in the subsequent issue under Corrections and addendum.

Retractions

A retraction is a public statement made about an earlier statement that withdraws, cancels, refutes, or reverses the original statement or ceases and desists from publishing the original statement. The retraction can be initiated by the editors of a journal, or by the author(s) of the papers (or their institution). The editors will consult reviewers for their comments. The article will be retracted in cases such as multiple submissions, plagiarism or fraudulent use of data. An alteration that modifications the principal factor of the original statement is generally referred to as a retraction while an alteration that leaves the main point of a statement intact is usually referred to simply as a correction. Depending on the circumstances, either a retraction or correction is the appropriate remedy. Journal of Mechanics of Continua and Mathematical Sciences’s Retraction policy is based, in large part, on the guidelines and standards developed by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

Withdrawal

Few of the authors request withdrawal of the manuscript from the publication process after submission or after publication. In a few instances, the request for withdrawal is made when the manuscript is only some days away from publication in the journal. This may cause time waste by the editors, reviewers, and editorial staff. To withdraw an article, a proper request must be made by the Corresponding Author in the specified template. Withdrawn means that the article is archived in our database and not further acted upon. Articles that have not been published yet but represent early versions of articles, are found to be accidental duplicates of other published article(s), or are decided to violate our journal publishing ethics guidelines in the view of the editors may be “Withdrawn” from the Journal.  

  • The Article is permitted to be withdrawn after its publication from the Journal and the APC which has been paid for the Article shall not be refunded.
