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 A: https://ascelibrary.org/journal/ajrua6
Part B: http://risk.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/journal.aspx
Editorial Message
Over the past year our journal has featured Special Collections and Special Issues on emerging technologies and cross-cutting topics of current interest, which attracted significant attention not only through their scientific excellence and accompanying review papers, but also through fast editorial processes for timely publication. Providing a structured and bundled presentation of selected key developments on dedicated topics, Special Collections and Special Issues amplify the exposure of contributions to our communities to significant extent. This mechanism works towards citation rates of papers, which is reflected in the impact factor of our journal. Part A is already well set with an Impact Factor of 3.084, and Part B is due to receive its Impact Factor in the coming year. In this regard we would like to draw your kind attention to the upcoming opportunities of Special Collections and Special Issues and encourage you to submit exciting developments for most effective featuring in the journal. Part B has currently two Special Issues open for submissions, on the topics of “Digital Twins: A New Frontier in Critical Infrastructure Protection and Resilience” and “Community resilience to disruptive events: models and analyses, lessons learned and case studies”. Subsequently, Special Issues are scheduled on “Uncertainty Quantification & Management in Nonlinear Dynamical Systems in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering”, “Modeling and Analysis of Inspection Uncertainties in Structural Health Monitoring” and “Probabilistic Digital Twins in Additive Manufacturing”. The current open call in Part A is for the Special Collection on Advances in efficient methods in random fields modeling and analysis”, which will be followed by calls on “New Technologies in Risk Assessment of Maritime Transport” and “Resilience of Power Infrastructure Systems”.
We thank you very much for your strong and sustained support of our journal driving its success further up. On behalf of the ASCE-ASME Journal family, we wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
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
