Aim and Scope
Resilience and Reuse in the Built Environment aims to advance knowledge and practice in the assessment, preservation, conservation, management, and sustainable transformation of existing buildings and infrastructure. Scholars, researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and industry stakeholders are invited to publish their research on issues related to preserving, enhancing, and adapting built environments in response to changing demands, environmental challenges, and societal needs.
Research and review articles dealing with the following topics are welcome:
- Structural and architectural assessment, conservation, restoration, and rehabilitation of existing buildings and infrastructure;
- Digitalisation techniques, including documentation, modelling, virtual reality, and advanced computational methods for built environment assessment and intervention planning;
- Structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing (NDT), condition diagnostics, and evaluation of vulnerability and resilience;
- Strategies and methodologies for seismic upgrading, disaster preparedness, post-disaster recovery, and management of urban vulnerabilities;
- Energy retrofitting, sustainable transformation, and environmental performance improvement in existing structures, including lifecycle analysis (LCA) and lifecycle costing (LCC);
- Analysis of energy demands and consumption patterns across building types, alongside innovations and methodologies for improving energy efficiency and enhancing energy performance in existing buildings;
- Historical and contemporary building materials: characterisation, performance evaluation, sustainability metrics, and innovative applications;
- Adaptive reuse, design for deconstruction and adaptability in building transformation to enhance environmental sustainability and urban resilience;
- Interdisciplinary studies connecting architecture, urbanism, heritage preservation, engineering, materials science, and policy implications related to the built environment;
- Education and awareness initiatives promoting the preservation and improvement of existing building stock;
- Effects of atmospheric conditions on the built environment, including adaptation and mitigation strategies.
Interdisciplinary approaches are particularly encouraged to foster a comprehensive understanding and holistic interventions in the existing built environment.
Resilience and Reuse in the Built Environment ensures original and high-quality published articles through Editorial integrity, double-blind peer review, and adherence to best practices in scholarly publishing.
