Aims and scope

AI in Civil Engineering (AICE) is an international journal for publishing original research papers, reviews, comments, and perspectives on Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in civil engineering. The journal accepts a broad spectrum of articles regarding basic and applied research of advanced AI technologies in the domain of civil engineering, such as buildings, infrastructure, construction, and maintenance. AICE aims to become a knowledge hub to capture and archive significant progress in AI-related civil engineering and is dedicated to advancing the frontiers of AI-enabled knowledge discovery and technological innovation in the field of civil engineering.

The journal publishes refereed research papers on all aspects pertaining to digital and computer technology in civil engineering, with a particular focus on the advances and applications of AI. The scope and forthcoming issues include but are not limited to:

Civil engineering objectives: structural engineering, infrastructure engineering, geotechnical engineering, bridge engineering, underground engineering, transportation, construction, environmental engineering, disaster mitigation, facility management;
Project life-cycle phases: engineering design and simulations; building information modelling (BIM) for planning, construction, and operation management; computational mechanics; development of materials, elements, and systems; intelligent construction technologies; disaster mitigation and engineering resilience; life-cycle assessment of AI-aided projects, products, and processes;
Different scales:  livable building, district, community, city, and society, city information modelling (CIM)
Innovative and emerging technologies: computer vision, pattern recognition, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, digital twin; autonomous system, automation, robotics; Internet of things, heterogeneous data fusion and computing, big data; distributed computing, cloud computing, edge computing; virtual reality, enhanced display, visualization techniques; blockchain.
Other important issues: moral and ethical issues related to AI development and application; AI-enabled decision-support systems; intelligent control algorithms and complex system modelling.
