International Journal of Hydromechatronics

International Journal of Hydromechatronics is a quarterly journal from Inderscience Publishers that treats hydraulics and mechatronics as a single field, reporting work where fluid power components are integrated with electronic control, with a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 6.2.《国际流体机械电子学杂志》（International Journal of Hydromechatronics）是英德赛恩斯出版公司出版的四期制期刊，把液压与机械电子视为同一领域，刊载流体动力元件与电子控制相互集成的成果，2025 年期刊影响因子为 6.2。

Scope

• The journal focuses on interaction phenomena between hydraulics and mechatronics, and on hydraulic elements integrated with mechatronic systems or the reverse arrangement.期刊聚焦液压与机械电子之间的相互作用现象，以及液压元件与机械电子系统的相互集成。
• Emphasis falls on applying hydromechatronics to enhance or create new functionality in hydraulic or mechatronic components, devices, products and systems.重点在于运用流体机械电子技术增强或创造液压与机械电子元件、器件、产品与系统的新功能。
• Topic coverage extends to hydraulics, pneumatics, functional fluids, fluid mechanics, transmission and control, and vibration control.主题覆盖液压、气动、功能性流体、流体力学、传动与控制以及振动控制。
• Sensing, measurement, signal processing, parameter identification and fault diagnosis are treated as core enabling methods rather than peripheral tools.传感、测量、信号处理、参数辨识与故障诊断被视为核心使能方法，而非辅助工具。
• Artificial intelligence methods are explicitly listed among the covered topics, reflecting the journal's interest in intelligent control of fluid power systems.人工智能方法被明确列入征稿主题，体现期刊对流体动力系统智能控制的关注。
• Original research papers and review papers are published, with occasional special issues devoted to a single important topic in hydromechatronics.期刊发表原创研究论文与综述，并不定期推出聚焦单一重要主题的专刊。
• Readership spans academic scholars, researchers and practising professionals in mechanical, electrical and hydraulic engineering.读者群涵盖机械、电气与液压工程领域的学者、研究人员与执业工程师。

History

• The first volume appeared in 2018, and volume 9 was being published in 2026, giving a volume a year over its run.首卷于 2018 年问世，2026 年出版至第 9 卷，建刊以来大体每年一卷。
• The journal states a nominal schedule of four issues a year, but recent volumes have carried additional numbers for special issues, reaching seven in 2025.期刊标称每年四期，但近几卷为专刊增出了期号，2025 年达到七期。
• The founding rationale was that existing titles covered mechanics, mechatronics or hydraulics separately, leaving the integrated field without a dedicated platform.创刊理由在于既有期刊分别覆盖力学、机械电子或液压，使这一交叉领域缺少专属平台。
• It is indexed in Scopus and in the Emerging Sources Citation Index of the Web of Science, and is listed in Google Scholar, J-Gate and ICI World of Journals.期刊被 Scopus 与 Web of Science 的 ESCI 收录，并在 Google Scholar、J-Gate 与 ICI World of Journals 中著录。
• Clarivate reports a 2025 impact factor of 6.2, a five-year impact factor of 3.9 and a Journal Citation Indicator of 1.35, while the Scopus CiteScore stands at 9.6.科睿唯安公布的 2025 年影响因子为 6.2，五年影响因子为 3.9，期刊引文指标为 1.35，Scopus 引用分为 9.6。
