The Journal of Terramechanics publishes articles on the interaction between vehicles/machinery and deformable surfaces, such as terrestrial terrain, seabed, and extraterrestrial soils; and on the terramechanics-vehic... impact topics and applications, including modeling and simulation with verification and validation; design and control; and operation and testing with statistical confidence of crewed and uncrewed off-road vehicles of various levels of autonomy, robots, extraterrestrial rovers, and terrain engaging-earth moving machinery, the latter of which implements working with agricultural soil/crop systems, construction equipment, forestry machinery, and tools for extraterrestrial surface exploration.As the publishing organ of the International Society for Terrain-Vehicle Systems (ISTVS), the journal provides a forum for disseminating the latest scientific and technical information in the field by both members and non-members of ISTVS. The journal presents a cross-section of technical papers, reviews, comments, and discussions, and serves as a medium for recording recent progress in the field.
Transportation Geotechnics aims to publish high quality, theoretical and applied papers on all aspects of geotechnics for roads, highways, railways and underground railways, airfields and waterways. Case studies that describe original work applicable to sustainable transportation infrastructure construction are particularly welcomed.The journal publishes topics including: • Geotechnical properties of geomaterials for rational and sustainable design and construction • Behaviour of compacted and stabilized geomaterials • Geosynthetics and reinforcement of constructed layers and interlayers, • Ground improvement and slope stability for transportation infrastructures, • Compaction technology and management • Maintenance technology • Climatic effects • Embankments for highways and high-speed trains • Transition zones • Dredging • Underwater geotechnics for infrastructure purposes, • Modelling of multi-layered structures and supporting ground under dynamic and repeated loads.
