ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems
Part A: Civil Engineering, and Part B. Mechanical Engineering

The Editorial Board of the ASCE-ASME Journal invites contributions presenting state-of-the-art research and best practices for addressing risk, disaster and failure-related challenges arising from uncertainty.   

How to submit
Part A: https://ascelibrary.org/journal/ajrua6
Part B: http://risk.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/journal.aspx

We particularly welcome emerging research relating to availability and processing of big data, including data driven decision support, machine learning and further computational intelligence tools relating to risk and uncertainty. Please contact the Editor or Managing Editors by email if you have an interest to guest edit a special collection (Part A) or a special issue (Part B).

Why publish with this journal?
Both Part A and Part B are listed in the Emerging Citation Sources Index by Clarivate Analytics - formerly Thomson Reuters, the Emerging Sources Citation Index, Web of Science, and Scopus.
ASCE and ASME Journals enjoy wide distribution and ensure a timely review process, with papers published online within eight weeks of acceptance.
