International Journal of Numerical Methods for Calculation and Design in Engineering (RIMNI) contributes to the spread of theoretical advances and practical applications of numerical methods in engineering and other applied sciences. RIMNI publishes articles written in Spanish, Portuguese and English. The scope of the journal includes mathematical and numerical models of engineering problems, development and application of numerical methods, advances in software, computer design innovations, educational aspects of numerical methods, etc. RIMNI is an essential source of information for scientifics and engineers in numerical methods theory and applications. RIMNI contributes to the interdisciplinar exchange and thus shortens the distance between theoretical developments and practical applications.
