In recent years, the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in several scientific fields, varying from big data handling to medical diagnosis, has drawn significant attention. The use of AI is already present in our daily lives, as exemplified by personalized ads, virtual assistants, autonomous driving, etc. Not surprisingly, AI methodologies have demonstrated impressive results through a wide range of uses and applications in engineering fields, including civil and structural engineering. The increase in AI studies 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 book collection contains applications and recent advances of AI with regard to 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, and construction management. The book contains 35 contributions in total from 19 different countries around the world, covering a broad range of topics related to the applications of AI in civil engineering.
