About the journal
Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering is a scholarly peer-reviewed archival journal intended to act as a bridge between advances being made in computer technology and civil and infrastructure engineering. It provides a unique form for publication of original articles on novel computer-aided techniques and innovative applications of computers. The journal specially focuses on recent advances in computer technologies and fosters the development and application of emerging computing paradigms.
The scope of the journal includes bridge, construction, environmental, highway, geotechnical, structural, transportation, and water resources engineering, and management of infrastructure systems such as highways, bridges, pavements, airports, and utilities. State-of-the-art review articles and articles on novel computer-aided instruction will also be published in the journal.
Areas covered by the journal include:
Visualization Techniques and Virtual Reality
Artificial Intelligence
Machine Learning
Smart Structures
Parallel Processing
Fuzzy Logic
Database Management Techniques
Neural Network computing
Cognitive modeling
Concurrent engineering
Distributed computing
Evolutionary computing
Geometric modeling
Knowledge engineering
Multimedia technologies
Robotics
Software engineering
Instructions to Authors
Submission of papers
Papers submitted to the journal must be original with clear definition of objectives, material used and methods applied and should not have been published or offered for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be refereed for originality by at least three reviewers prior to publication. Five copies of the manuscript complete with copies of all figures and photographs should be submitted to Professor H. Adeli, Department of Civil Engineering, The Ohio State University, 470 Hitchcock Hall, 2070 Neil Avenue, Columbus, Ohio 43210, USA. Below, authors will find instructions for the preparation of manuscripts. Strict adherence to these conventions of style will speed up the review and publication process.
Manuscript preparation
Five copies should be provided, in double-spaced typing on pages of uniform size with a wide margin at the left. The length of the manuscript should be limited to 36 pages including tables and figures. The title page should contain the title, author(s) name(s) and affiliation(s), including a complete address for correspondence and proofs. Each paper should be provided with an abstract of 100-150 words, reporting concisely on the purpose and results of the paper. The title of the paper should unambiguously reflect its contents. The title of the paper should not exceed 70 characters including blank spaces.
Authors should consult a recent issue of the journal for style and layout if possible. The Editor reserves the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity.
The SI system should be used for all scientific and laboratory data; if, in certain instances, it is necessary to quote other units, these should be added in parentheses. Temperatures should be given in degrees Celsius. The unit 'billion' (109 in America, 1012in Europe) is ambiguous and should not be used.
Tables (numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals), references and legends to illustrations should be typed on separate sheets and placed at the end of the paper.
Footnotes should be avoided especially if they contain information which could equally well be included in the text.
Electronic submissions guidelines
Authors are encouraged to deliver the final version of their accepted manuscript on diskette. To do so, please adhere to the following guidelines: Submit either a diskette in MS-DOS, Windows, or Macintosh format. LATEX or ASCII files are preferred. However, any word-processing software will be accepted. Send the native file and an ASCII copy. Name the file with your last name. Label the disk with your name, the file name, the program and versions used as well as the operating system. (For example, Smith, Smith.doc, Word 6.0, Windows.) Submit each illustration or figure as a separate file without captions. Name the file as it will appear in text. (For example, Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.) If using a program other than that used for the text, specify the program and version used. Submission by email is also encouraged. Emailed files should be combined and encoded in a standard way, for example, tarred and unencoded for UNIX. Author's name and the journal should appear in the subject line of the email, for example, Smith, CACAIE. Accepted articles can be emailed to tti@clark.net. All final disk or email submissions should be accompanied by two hard copies. The hard copy must match the digital file. All submissions should also include the author's email address.
Mathematical notation
Please type all formulas for clarity. Identify special symbols when they first occur. Distinguish between '0' (zero) and capital and lower case 'O' (oh) and between lower case 'l' (ell) and Arabic number '1' (one).
References
References should be cited at the appropriate point in the text by the last name of the author followed by the year of publication in parentheses. A list of references in alphabetical order should appear at the end of the paper without numbers. All references in this list should be cited at some point in the text and vice versa. Unpublished data or private communications should not appear in the list. Examples of layout of references are given below.

Illustrations
The original and four copies, which may be of a reduced size, of each illustration should be provided. Line drawings may be submitted in any medium providing that the image is black and very sharp. They should preferably all require the same degree of reduction; large diagrams, more than four times final size, are discouraged due to handling difficulties. The type area of the journal is 177 mm wide x 240 mm deep, in two columns per page, each 85 mm wide, and lettering should therefore be large enough to be legible after reduction of the illustration to fit (ideally 7 pt lettering after reduction). Photographs should be submitted as contrasting black-and-white prints on glossy paper. Each illustration must be clearly numbered and the name(s) of the author(s) of the paper written on the reverse side.
Proofs
The author (or the corresponding author where several are involved) will receive a set of proofs for information purposes. No new material may be inserted in the text at the time of proofreading unless accepted by the Editor AND a fee paid by the author for any changes made at the proofreading stage.
Page charge and offprints
There will be no page charges. Twenty-five offprints of each paper are supplied free of charge. Additional copies can be ordered at current printing prices.
