The paper analyzes the level of coverage and citation of publications by mechanicians of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) in the Scopus database. Two groups of mechanicians are considered. One group includes 66 doctors of sciences of the S. P. Timoshenko Institute of Mechanics as representatives of the oldest institute of the NASU. The other group includes 34 members (academicians and corresponding members) of the Division of Mechanics of the NASU as representatives of the authoritative community of mechanicians in Ukraine. The results are presented for each scientist in the form of two indices—the total number of publications accessible in the database as the level of coverage of the scientist’s publications in this database and the h-index as the citation level of these publications. This paper may be considered to continue the papers [–] published in Prikladnaya Mekhanika (International Applied Mechanics) in 2005–2009 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper performs a citation analysis of publications of mechanicians of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) based on information tools developed by the Thomson Reuters Institute for Scientific Information. Two groups of mechanicians are considered: representatives of the S. P. Timoshenko Institute of Mechanics of the NASU (NASU members, heads of departments) and members (academicians) of the NASU Division of Mechanics. Three elements of the Citation Report (Results Found, Citation Index (Sum of the Times Cited), h-index) are presented for each scientist. This paper may be considered as a follow-up on the papers [–] published by Prikladnaya Mekhanika ( International Applied Mechanics) in 2005–2009 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents information on 220 monographs published by scientists of the S. P. Timoshenko Institute of Mechanics (National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine) and available in the Library of Congress (USA), and on ways (reading rooms and catalog numbers) of familiarizing oneself with them. The Library of Congress Online Catalog makes it possible to obtain information on these monographs via the Internet at any center of science in any country. This allows the scientific community to access the results presented in these monographs and resolves the problem of presenting them to the world’s scientific community [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
