Seismic Resistant Design and Analysis for Building Structures and Infrastructure Systems

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to submit a paper to the Special Issue “Seismic Resistant Design and Analysis for Building Structures and Infrastructure Systems”. This Special Issue aims to present current research on the evaluation of the seismic behavior/performance of structures such as buildings and infrastructures via numerical and experimental approaches. In addition, applications of seismic risk assessment methodologies for designing structures are also included. The scope of this Special Issue covers advanced computational technologies and numerical models to perform detailed nonlinear static and/or dynamic analyses of realistic structural systems including soil–structure interaction (SSI). Contributions that involve a significant earthquake engineering component are especially welcome.

Example topics of interest include the following:

• Seismic behavior/performance of buildings/infrastructrues through numerical analysis and/or dynamic load tests;
• Evaluation of dynamic soil–structure interaction behavior;
• Seismic risk assessment technology for single/multiple seismic hazards;
• Probabilistic and deterministic methods in earthquake engineering assessments and design;
• Advanced seismic design technology.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
