Journal of Earthquake Engineering (JEE)
The Journal of Earthquake Engineering is a quarterly publication of peer-reviewed papers on research
and development in analytical, experimental and field studies of earthquakes from an engineering
seismology as well as a structural engineering viewpoint. The Journal combines the three most important
ingredients for a successful technical publication; the highest possible technical quality, speed of
publication and competitive subscription rates.
The journal draws on research and development work from engineering communities worldwide in the
fields of earthquake engineering and engineering seismology. Work on experimental, analytical, design
and field studies will be considered for publication. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics
considered to be within the scope of JEE:
Historical seismicity
Tectonics and seismology
Strong-motion studies
Soil dynamics and foundations
Site effects and geotechnical aspects
Dynamic soil-structure interaction
Foundation design for earthquake loading
Seismic response of buildings
Seismic response of bridges and other special structures
Lifelines earthquake engineering
Passive and active systems for earthquake protection
Repair and strengthening
Earthquake disaster mitigation and emergency planning
Case histories and field studies
Original state-of-the-art papers are also welcome. Timely papers on field investigations following
damaging earthquakes will be considered for accelerated review and publication. Also, the journal
extends a special invitation to authors of short communications of new research findings that may not
have been developed sufficiently to warrant full-length papers.
