Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Natural hazards such as earthquakes and windstorms generate significant risks to infrastructure worldwide. Traditional engineering approaches, while effective, often struggle to keep pace with the growing complexity and frequency of these events. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) provide new opportunities to enhance our ability to predict, assess, and mitigate the impacts of natural hazards on buildings. AI technologies, including machine learning and data analysis, offer innovative solutions for improving the resilience and sustainability of the built environment.
This publication invites contributions that explore the application of AI in enhancing the resilience of infrastructure subjected to natural hazards. We welcome submissions addressing themes such as AI-driven risk assessment, the predictive modeling of natural hazards, the resilience enhancement of buildings, and the integration of AI in earthquake and wind engineering. Manuscripts can include original research articles, reviews, case studies, and technical notes. We encourage the development interdisciplinary approaches and innovative methodologies that push the boundaries of current engineering practices. Authors are expected to present clear approaches, robust data analyses, and practical implications of their findings.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. AI is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
