ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems

The ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems is a peer-reviewed scientific journal established in 2014 by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). It disseminates research findings, best practices concerns, and discussions and debates on risk- and uncertainty-related issues in the areas of civil and mechanical engineering and related fields. ASCE and ASME registered the two parts as separate journals as:

Part A: Civil Engineering & Part B: Mechanical Engineering

Special Issue on Advances in Numerical and Experimental Methods for Uncertainty Quantification in Engineering (SC070A)

Submit Paper » Background Engineering systems and structures are often subject to a wide range of uncertainties arising from material properties, environmental conditions, manufacturing tolerances, operational fluctuations, etc. Probabilistic analysis is usually applied to describe these uncertainties, although more often than not they also involve epistemic uncertainties arising from modelling the randomness under insufficient information, and/or a lack of modelling details of the physical processes with computational simulators. Accurately quantifying these uncertainties is critical for designing robust and reliable engineering solutions. This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest developments and innovative approaches in the field of uncertainty quantification tailored specifically for engineering applications. ...

Special Collection on Advanced Numerical Techniques and Engineering Applications for Uncertainty Propagation in High-Dimensional Stochastic Systems (SC069A)

Submit Paper » Background This Special Collection (SC) aims to gather contributions to advance the state-of-the-art methods and applications of uncertainty propagation in high-dimensional stochastic systems. Effective uncertainty propagation is critical for rational decision-making, risk assessment, and optimization of engineering systems. Particularly, high-dimensional stochastic systems represent a significant class of problems encountered in various domains. Nevertheless, uncertainty propagation in high-dimensional settings poses significant challenges due to the “curse of dimensionality”. Traditional methods often become computationally prohibitive. Consequently, there is a growing need for advanced techniques to handle the complexity of high-dimensional systems accurately and efficiently. This SC focuses on efficient analytical, data-driven, and computational methods for uncertainty propagation, novel control techniques for stochastic systems, and advanced optimization approaches. Grounded in solid theory, these methods aim for real-world applications, bridging the gap between theory and practice with practical solutions in aerospace, civil engineering, energy systems, and environmental modeling. ...

Special Collection on Uncertainty Modeling and Quantification of Numerical Methods in Geotechnics (SC066A)

Submit Paper » Aims & Scope This Special Collection (SC) aims to provide a dedicated space for in-depth exploration and dissemination of advancements in uncertainty modeling and quantification of numerical methods in geotechnical engineering. The primary goal of this SC is to feature emerging developments, which address the calibration of soil or rock constitutive models developed in recent time, data-driven and physics-informed models for soil or rock constitutive relations, database assessment of the variability in geotechnical numerical predictions, and benchmark exercises for geotechnical analyses by commercial software. The contributions are supposed to provide a deeper insight into the calibration and verification of numerical models in geotechnics, as well as the quantification of variability in numerical predictions of geo-structural response (e.g., deformation, capacity or stability). By establishing this SC, we aim to foster a collaborative environment that encourages researchers to contribute high-quality works, sharing insights and innovations in the field of uncertainty in geotechnical numerical methods. ...

Special Issue on Reliability Modelling and Assessment of Complex Engineering Systems with Mixed Uncertainty (SI067B)

Submit Paper » Engineering systems are increasingly complex. They need to meet advanced requirements for mission-critical fields with a low failure tolerance. As unexpected failures during the designed lifespan of a system may lead to catastrophic consequences, their reliability modeling and assessment are of utmost importance. The reliability modeling should achieve the assessment at a reasonable confidence level to help decision-makers arrive at sound decisions in practice. ...
