The Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering (JBSE) is an Open Access, peer-reviewed journal approved by Asian-Pacific Association for Biomechanics (APAB), the Bioengineering Division of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME-BED), the Korean Society of Biomechanics (KSB), and the Taiwanese Society of Biomechanics (TSB). JBSE publishes peer-reviewed articles on biomechanical science and engineering. The journal publishes Regular Articles and Reviews.

JBSE’s scope includes molecular biomechanics, cellular biomechanics, tissue engineering, organ engineering, cardiorespiratory biomechanics, musculoskeletal biomechanics, neural mechanics, orthopedic biomechanics, locomotion, human movement, artificial organs, medical device, sports biomechanics, injury, rehabilitation, flying, swimming, biomechanics in nature, and other interdisciplinary sciences.

As the official peer-reviewed journal of APAB, JSME-BED, KSB, and TSB, JBSE serves an ever-growing role in the support of the biomechanics community, especially in Asian-Pacific region. The journal employs rigorous peer review of manuscripts to ensure the highest scientific publishing and ethical standards for our broad audience of researchers, clinicians, policy makers and other bioengineering professionals.
