FOCUS AND SCOPE
Focus and Scope
RIGID: Journal of Research and Innovation in Civil Engineering as Applied Science is a peer-reviewed open-access journal that publishes original research, review articles, and case studies in the field of civil engineering and its applications as an applied science. The journal aims to serve as a platform for academicians, researchers, practitioners, and professionals to share innovations, technological developments, and best practices.
The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to:
-
Structural Engineering
Analysis, design, materials, earthquake engineering, structural health monitoring, and sustainable structures. -
Geotechnical Engineering
Soil mechanics, foundation engineering, slope stability, ground improvement, and geotechnical modeling. -
Transportation Engineering
Highway and traffic engineering, pavement design, intelligent transportation systems, and transportation planning. -
Water Resources and Hydraulics Engineering
Hydrology, hydraulic structures, urban drainage, flood management, and water quality modeling. -
Construction and Project Management
Construction methods, cost estimation, risk management, BIM, lean construction, and sustainable practices. -
Environmental Engineering
Waste management, water and wastewater treatment, environmental impact assessment, and green infrastructure. -
Materials in Civil Engineering
Innovative materials, concrete technology, recycling and reuse, durability, and performance evaluation. -
Urban Planning and Infrastructure Development
Smart cities, urban resilience, infrastructure policy, and development strategies. -
Applied Sciences in Civil Engineering
Application of AI, machine learning, IoT, remote sensing, and GIS in solving civil engineering problems.
The journal welcomes interdisciplinary research and encourages submissions that bridge the gap between theory and practical application in civil engineering.
