The International Journal of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering (IJGEE) encourages publication and dissemination of research and development on geotechnical engineering, geophysics and geothermal engineering, pavement engineering, engineering seismology, engineering geology, disaster mitigation, and structural engineering. This journal presents original articles on the latest findings and industry solutions for those fields by the leading experts. The journal reports and archives cutting-edge research in a timely manner in the form of original research articles, review articles, technical notes, and discussion.
Mission & Scope:
The mission of the International Journal of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering (IJGEE) is to publish peer-reviewed articles on research and development in analytic, experimental, and field studies of geotechnical and earthquake engineering. It will also include inter-allied areas of (but not limited to) geophysics and geothermal engineering, pavement engineering, engineering seismology... Show More
The mission of the International Journal of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering (IJGEE) is to publish peer-reviewed articles on research and development in analytic, experimental, and field studies of geotechnical and earthquake engineering. It will also include inter-allied areas of (but not limited to) geophysics and geothermal engineering, pavement engineering, engineering seismology, engineering geology, hazard mitigation, and structural engineering. This journal provides timely articles on cutting edge research. The journal draws research and development from scientists and engineers worldwide in the fields of earthquake engineering, geotechnical engineering, geophysics, and engineering seismology. Work on experimental, analytic, design, field studies, and case histories are encouraged

View Full Editorial PolicyArticle Processing Charge (APC):
Payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) by the author or a funding body is not required until AFTER the manuscript has gone through
the full double-blind peer review process and the Editor(s)-in-Chief at his/her/their full discretion has/have decided to accept the manuscript based
on the results of the double-blind peer review process.
What Does IGI Global's Open Access APC Cover?
In the traditional subscription-based model, the cost to the publisher to produce each article is covered by the revenue generated by journal subscriptions.
Under OA, all the articles are published under a Creative Commons (CC BY) license; therefore, the authors or funding body will pay a one-time
article processing charge (APC) to offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including:
- Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
- Typesetting, formatting and layout
- Online hosting
- Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
- Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
- Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
- All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
- The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
the authors - Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*
*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.
APC Subsidizing and Funding
To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding.
Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more.
