Abstract:
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has drawn significant attention with respect to its applications in several scientific fields, varying from big data handling to medical diagnosis. The use of AI is already present in our daily lives with several uses, such as personalized ads, virtual assistants, autonomous driving, etc. Not surprisingly, AI methodologies have found a wide range of uses and applications in engineering fields, including civil and structural engineering, with impressive results. The increase in AI studies with great acceleration shows that the use of AI in civil engineering is gaining momentum and will keep increasing in the coming years, bringing new innovations and applications. This research topic contains applications and recent advances of AI in civil engineering problems, promoting cross-fertilization between these scientific fields. In particular, the focus is on hybrid studies and applications related to structural engineering, transportation engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydraulic engineering, environmental engineering, coastal and ocean engineering, structural health monitoring, as well as construction management.
