Welcome from the Editor-in-Chief
The ASME Journal of Mechanical Design (JMD) serves the broad design community as a venue for scholarly, archival research on all aspects of the engineering design activity. JMD has traditionally served the ASME Design Engineering Division and its technical committees, but it welcomes contributions from all areas of design with an emphasis on design synthesis.
The engineering design community is confronting problems of unprecedented complexity and uncertainty. Climate change, autonomous systems, large-scale infrastructure needs, defense, security, and global health concerns
The Journal of Mechanical Design Webinar Series is a series of webinars organized quarterly to feature interesting research work being published in the Journal of Mechanical Design (JMD).

The editorial board of the Journal of Mechanical Design (JMD) endorses the commitment of ASME to support diversity and to create and ensure inclusive and ethical practices for publishing as well as the science and engineering professions. Over the past few years, JMD has continuously expanded the geographic and gender diversity of its editorial board, with close to 30% of its editorial board being women or from underrepresented groups. JMD has championed and implemented the double-blind review option to promote objectivity in the review process and reduce bias based on the authors’ country, gender, and seniority. In addition, JMD has reached out to underrepresented groups, young researchers, and women to feature as JMD webinar organizers and speakers. For suggestions to further improve the journal’s DEI practices, please contact JMD’s DEI advocate, Scott Ferguson at smfergu2@ncsu.edu.
