《結構地質學雜志》出版了關于結構地質學的面向過程的調查報告，使用模擬和數字現場數據、地震反射數據、衛星獲得的數據、幾何分析、運動學分析、實驗室實驗、計算機可視化以及各種規模的模擬或數值模型的適當組合。鼓勵從流變學、巖石力學、地球物理學、變質學、沉積學、石油地質學、經濟地質學、地球動力學、行星地質學、構造學和新構造學等方面作出貢獻，以便對變形過程和系統有更有力的了解。鑒于該學科的視覺特性，以3d或準3d方式描述數據和分析的補充材料，包括使用視頻和/或圖形摘要，可以顯著增強貢獻的影響。

The Journal of Structural Geology publishes process-oriented investigations about structural geology using appropriate combinations of analog and digital field data, seismic reflection data, satellite-derived data, geometric analysis, kinematic analysis, laboratory experiments, computer visualizations, and analogue or numerical modelling on all scales. Contributions are encouraged to draw perspectives from rheology, rock mechanics, geophysics,metamorphism, sedimentology, petroleum geology, economic geology, geodynamics, planetary geology, tectonics and neotectonics to provide a more powerful understanding of deformation processes and systems. Given the visual nature of the discipline, supplementary materials that portray the data and analysis in 3-D or quasi 3-D manners, including the use of videos, and/or graphical abstracts can significantly strengthen the impact of contributions.
