Civil Engineering

A section of Applied Sciences (ISSN 2076-3417).

Section Information

Civil Engineering once encompassed all non-military engineering and, as such, is a very wide-ranging subject area. Today, it covers all things big—bridges, buildings, foundations, dams, rivers, water distribution networks, roads, transportation networks and a significant element of general technical management. This Section welcomes original contributions to all relevant subject areas of Applied Sciences. As there are already specialist journals in many of these areas, we particularly welcome contributions that do not easily fall into any one sub-discipline or emerging areas that do not yet have their own journals.

In recent decades, there has been a surge in computing power while the cost of electronics and sensing technologies has fallen. We particularly welcome contributions that exploit the opportunities that these developments have made possible. Download Section Flyer
