The journal of Biomechanism and Bioenergy Research (BBR) is a peer-reviewed open-access international semiannual journal devoted to the field of biomechanism, bioenergy, biomass, and biofuels, published by Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman and is scientifically sponsored by the Association of Iranian Society of Agricultural Machinery Engineering and Mechanization (ISAMEM). The subject of biomechanism and bioenergy research reflects the wide range of topics and the interdisciplinary nature of research in engineering applied to biological systems. Therefore, it is an interdisciplinary journal devoted to the publication of original articles, review articles, etc., considering the research ethics and academic rules and regulations.  The journal aims to publish research and review papers on the most recent issues and developments in the field. All papers are subject to a double-blind reviewing process.

In the subfield of Biomechanism, the journal welcomes original and review manuscripts describing analytical and mathematical modeling, numerical techniques, mechanical analysis of plant, and animal and human structures and tissues. Design, optimization and analysis of machines for feed, fiber and food production, human assistive machines and livestock-related machineries are also considered for publication.

In the Bioenergy section, the journal covers a wide range of areas related to the production, utilization, and consumption of various forms of bioenergy including bioenergy resources, biochemical processes, biomass residues, biomaterial processing, fermentation, thermochemical conversions of biomass, bioenergy performance, environmental issues, biofuel, fuel and energy properties of biomaterials.
