The Journal of Vibration and Control is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that covers all aspects of linear and nonlinear vibration phenomena and their control. It was established in 1995 and is published by SAGE Publications. The editors-in-chief are Mehdi Ahmadian (Virginia Tech), Fabio Casciati (University of Pavia), and Fabrizio Vestroni (Sapienza University of Rome).

Peer review fraud[edit]

In 2014, SAGE Publications retracted 60 papers published in the journal due to a case of academic fraud, in which Peter Chen (National Pingtung University of Education, Taiwan) created false accounts in order to subvert the peer review process.[1] Ali H. Nayfeh, the editor-in-chief of the journal, retired from his academic post and resigned from his position with the journal following completion of the investigation.[2]

Abstracting and indexing[edit]

The journal is abstracted and indexed in Scopus and the Science Citation Index Expanded. In 2014 the journal had its impact factor suppressed due to anomalous stacked citation patterns.[3] In 2016, the journal is included in the Journal Citation Reports and its impact factor becomes 1.643 [4]
