Journal of Structural Engineering and Management

Journal of Structural Engineering and Management [2393-8773(e)] is a peer-reviewed hybrid open-access journal launched in 2014 that covers all aspects of structural Engineering and Management. The goal of this Journal is to provide a platform for scientists, academicians, and Engineers to discuss new developments in the area of Structural engineering. 

• Structural analysis and computational modelling: linear and nonlinear analysis, finite element formulation and validation, stability and buckling, plastic and limit analysis, soil–structure and fluid–structure interaction, and optimisation of structural systems.
• Concrete structures: reinforced and prestressed concrete behaviour, high-performance and fibre-reinforced concrete members, shear, flexure, and torsion response, serviceability and cracking, long-term effects including creep and shrinkage, and durability-based design.
• Steel and composite structures: hot-rolled and cold-formed steel members, connection behaviour and design, steel–concrete composite systems, plate and shell stability, fatigue of steel details, and steel plate shear wall systems.
• Masonry, timber, and emerging structural materials: unreinforced and reinforced masonry behaviour, engineered timber and mass timber systems, hybrid and composite construction, and structural applications of recycled and low-carbon materials.
• Earthquake engineering and structural dynamics: seismic demand and capacity assessment, nonlinear static and dynamic analysis, performance-based seismic design, base isolation and passive, active, and semi-active vibration control, shake-table and hybrid simulation testing, seismic response of foundations and buried structures, and tsunami and post-earthquake loading.
• Wind, blast, fire, and extreme loading: wind loading and aeroelastic response of tall and slender structures, wind tunnel and computational studies, blast and impact resistance, structural behaviour in fire, progressive collapse, and multi-hazard design.
• Bridge and infrastructure structures: bridge design and analysis, dynamic and vehicle–bridge interaction, long-span and cable-supported systems, bearings and expansion joints, tunnel and retaining structure behaviour, and structures for water, energy, and transport infrastructure.
• Structural testing and experimental mechanics: full-scale and component testing, material and member characterisation, non-destructive evaluation, sensor instrumentation and data acquisition, and correlation of experimental and numerical results.
• Structural health monitoring and condition assessment: damage detection and system identification, vibration-based and sensor-network monitoring, digital twins for structural assets, remaining life estimation, and forensic investigation of structural failures.
• Repair, strengthening, and retrofit: seismic retrofit strategies, strengthening with fibre-reinforced polymers and external post-tensioning, corrosion repair and protection, rehabilitation of heritage and ageing structures, and evaluation of intervention effectiveness.
• Structural reliability and risk: probabilistic modelling of loads and resistance, reliability-based design and code calibration, uncertainty quantification, structural robustness, and risk-informed decision making for extreme events.
• Structural asset management: inspection planning and prioritisation, maintenance strategy and lifecycle costing, deterioration modelling, resilience and sustainability assessment of structural systems, design code development, and management of structural project delivery.
