Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes research on the seismic behavior of geotechnical structures and soil properties. Studies investigate the impact of seismic loads on railway embankments, road embankments on soft soils, and the liquefaction susceptibility of river channel deposits. The journal also covers the analysis of soil-structure interaction for buildings under earthquake loading and the use of recycled materials and ground improvement techniques for seismic mitigation.
