Aims & Scope

Structural Durability & Health Monitoring (SDHM) is an interdisciplinary journal that serves as a platform for publishing high-quality research on the performance, safety, durability, and sustainability of structural systems across their full lifecycle. While continuing to emphasize structural durability, fatigue, damage mechanics, and health monitoring techniques, the journal also welcomes original studies in the broader fields of structural engineering.

The journal particularly encourages contributions that integrate theoretical advances, computational modeling, innovative materials, and emerging technologies to improve the long-term reliability and resilience of civil, mechanical, aerospace, and marine structures.

Key topics include but are not limited to:

• Structural durability and service life prediction under environmental and mechanical stressors

• Structural health monitoring (SHM): sensing technologies, signal processing, and damage diagnostics

• Structural analysis and design optimization

• Structural safety under seismic, wind, impact, and other extreme events

• Smart and adaptive structures with real-time response capabilities

• Digital construction, construction automation, and 3D-printed structures

• Advanced construction materials and their long-term degradation behavior

• Structural informatics: BIM, digital twins, and AI-driven decision-making

• Infrastructure resilience, probabilistic risk assessment, and lifecycle performance

The journal welcomes both fundamental research and applied engineering studies, especially those that bridge the gap between simulation and real-world implementation.
