這本雜志每年出版六期。有些問題，無論是整體的還是部分的，都可能是特別的，集中在讀者感興趣的主題上。這本美國材料試驗(yàn)協(xié)會的旗艦期刊是一個(gè)多學(xué)科的應(yīng)用科學(xué)和工程論壇。《測試與評估雜志》每兩個(gè)月出版一期，介紹了從現(xiàn)場和實(shí)驗(yàn)室測試中獲得的有關(guān)材料性能、定量表征和評估的新技術(shù)信息。論文提出了新的方法和數(shù)據(jù)以及關(guān)鍵的評估；報(bào)告了用戶在實(shí)驗(yàn)室間測試和分析的測試方法和結(jié)果方面的經(jīng)驗(yàn)；激發(fā)了測試和評估領(lǐng)域的新想法。主要主題領(lǐng)域是疲勞和斷裂、機(jī)械測試和火災(zāi)測試。還出版評論文章、技術(shù)說明、研究簡報(bào)和評論。所有論文都經(jīng)過同行評審。

This journal is published in six issues per year. Some issues, in whole or in part, may be Special Issues focused on a topic of interest to our readers.This flagship ASTM journal is a multi-disciplinary forum for the applied sciences and engineering. Published bimonthly, the Journal of Testing and Evaluation presents new technical information, derived from field and laboratory testing, on the performance, quantitative characterization, and evaluation of materials. Papers present new methods and data along with critical evaluations; report users' experience with test methods and results of interlaboratory testing and analysis; and stimulate new ideas in the fields of testing and evaluation.Major topic areas are fatigue and fracture, mechanical testing, and fire testing. Also publishes review articles, technical notes, research briefs and commentary. All papers are peer-reviewed.
