Soft computing techniques have found several valuable applications in the field of civil engineering, and especially in structural engineering. These applications demonstrate how soft computing techniques offer versatile solutions to complex, uncertain, and nonlinear problems. By enabling the handling of uncertain and nonlinear situations, soft computing enhances the efficiency, safety, and reliability of structural designs and analyses. Soft computing techniques are often used in situations where traditional methods struggle to produce satisfactory results. Examples of how soft computing is used in structural engineering include structural optimization, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), uncertainty quantification, composite material design and wind and vibration analysis, among others.
