ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems - Call for Papers
Part A: Civil Engineering, and Part B. Mechanical Engineering
The Editorial Board of the ASCE-ASME Journal invites contributions presenting state-of-the-art research and best practices for addressing risk, disaster and failure-related challenges arising from uncertainty. We particularly welcome emerging research relating to availability and processing of big data, including data driven decision support, machine learning and further computational intelligence tools relating to risk and uncertainty.
How to submit:

Part B: http://risk.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/journal.aspx
Editorial Message
We are proud to receive an Impact Factor of 3.084 for Part A of our journal. Simultaneously, we experience an upward trend for Part B and anticipate a respective reflection in an impact factor in the next cycle. This success is based upon a team effort with high quality contributions by all authors, rigorous reviews, and dedicated management by the editorial team, for which I express my personal appreciation and thanks. A particular feature of our journal related to its success is its dedication to most current challenges in a multi-disciplinary setting. The current Special Section “Probabilistic Approaches for Robust Structural Health Monitoring of Wind Energy Infrastructure”, curated by E. Chatzi and I. Abdallah for Part B, integrates structural analysis with machine learning and data analysis for green energy solutions. Technical papers involve aspects of human behavior, environmental, health and economic aspects, as well as communication and cybersecurity. The editorial on Climate Resilience Technologies for Infrastructure provides a perspective for emerging developments across disciplines as they are needed in the larger context of our grand challenges. We particularly invite contributions and proposals for Special Issues and Special Collections, which address our challenges with emerging multi-disciplinary approaches.
Please contact the Editor or the Managing Editors by email if you have an interest to guest edit a special collection (Part A) or a special issue (Part B).Both Part A and Part B are listed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index by Clarivate Analytics , formerly Thomson Reuters, with Part A being indexed since 2019. From 2016 onward, all articles are included in Web of Science and Scopus .
Statement on Open Access
The editorial team motivates authors to share their pre-prints and/or accepted versions of their paper via institutional or other repositories, scientific social networks or personal websites in the spirit of Open Science. Please make sure to abide by embargos and other Journal Policies, which can be found here for part A and here for part B .
