Computers and Geotechnics provides an up-to-date reference for engineers and researchers engaged in computer aided analysis and research in geotechnical engineering. The journal is intended for an expeditious dissemination of advanced computer applications across a broad range of geotechnical topics. Contributions on advances in numerical algorithms, computer implementation of new constitutive models and probabilistic methods are especially encouraged. Submissions that predominantly report results using proprietary codes, or describe computer modelling of laboratory tests, field monitoring, hydrocarbon extraction, case histories or design are only welcome if they demonstrate novel user-implemented computational methods. Mining engineering topics and "soft computing" applications are usually discouraged, since they align more closely with other journals. Since the journal is willing to accept longer papers if justified, authors are asked to avoid two-part submissions.

《計算機與巖土工程》為從事巖土工程計算機輔助分析和研究的工程師和研究人員提供了最新的參考資料。該雜志旨在迅速傳播先進的計算機應用，跨越廣泛的巖土技術主題。特別鼓勵在數值算法、新本構模型的計算機實現和概率方法方面的貢獻。提交的報告主要使用專有代碼報告結果，或描述實驗室測試、現場監測、碳氫化合物提取、案例記錄或設計的計算機模型，只有在它們展示了新穎的用戶實現的計算方法時才受歡迎。采礦工程主題和“軟計算”應用程序通常不受歡迎，因為它們與其他期刊更緊密地結合在一起。由于期刊愿意接受篇幅較長的論文，因此要求作者避免分兩部分投稿。
