Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The convergence of advanced intelligent technologies with sustainable engineering principles is considered by engineers, scholars and governors to be a transformative pathway for the traditional architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industries. Many new ideas, concepts and technologies, such as generative design, low-carbon construction, sustainable urban construction, 3D print construction, digital twin of engineering, building robotics, industrialized building, etc., have been created and developed in the civil engineering field, including architectures, structures and constructions. This Special Issue aims to promote the high-quality works in developing and studying intelligent and sustainable technology or methods related to architectures, structures and constructions, with a focus on state-of-the-art progress, development, and new trends.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- AI and machine learning method in AEC
- Low-carbon assessment and management of buildings
- Sustainable strategies for AEC
- 3D print construction
- Intelligentization of construction machine
- Building robotics
- Engineering digital twin
- Resilience and sustainability of buildings and infrastructures
- Industrialized buildings
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
