This book covers different geotechnical and structural engineering topics applied to buildings, power grid infrastructures, hydroelectric projects, bridges, and transport infrastructures. The book contains research data useful for researchers and practitioners to support the sustainable design, building, operation, and maintenance of civil infrastructures. The papers included in this book were selected from the 6th GeoChina International Conference on Civil & Transportation Infrastructures: From Engineering to Smart & Green Life Cycle Solutions.
The studies presented in this volume cover new approaches of geotechnical engineering introduced by researchers, engineers and scientists to address contemporary issues in geotechnical engineering such as the usage of sustainable materials in soil, soil characterization with new methods, and numerical simulations to predict material properties, etc. Studies were selected from the 6th GeoChina International Conference on Civil & Transportation Infrastructures: From Engineering to Smart & Green Life Cycle Solutions -- Nanchang, China, 2021.
The book presents a compilation of studies regarding applied geomechanics, mining, and excavation analysis and simulation. The material is suitable for presentation to senior undergraduate and post-graduate students in both mining and geological engineering. It should also be of interest to students of other aspects of Geomechanics and, notably, engineering geologists interested in mining and underground excavation design. Practising mining engineers and rock mechanics engineers involved in mine design may use the book profitably to obtain an appreciation of the current state of engineering knowledge in their area of specialisation. Papers were selected from the 5th GeoChina International Conference on Civil Infrastructures Confronting Severe Weathers and Climate Changes: From Failure to Sustainability, held in July 23-25, 2018 in Hang Zhou, China.
This book focuses on the role of soil structure interaction and soil dynamics. It discusses case studies as well as physical and numerical models of geostructures. Infrastructure is the key to create a sustainable community. It affects our future well-being as well as the economic climate. Indeed, the infrastructure we are building today will shape tomorrow's communities. GeoMEast 2019 created a venue for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to share their expertise to advance the role of innovative geotechnology in developing sustainable infrastructure. It covers soil structure interaction under static and dynamic loads, dynamic behavior of soils, and soil liquefaction. It is hoped that this book contributes to further advance the state of the art for the next-generation infrastructure.
This book presents the collection of technical papers which includes research on two important topics in geotechnical engineering; the characterization of unsaturated soils. The papers in this collection are representative of local challenges facing geotechnical engineers in the Middle East, but their contributions can also be extended to other regions of the world.
This book presents select proceedings of the Indian Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering Conference (IGGEC-21).

The book will be a valuable reference for researchers and professionals in the discipline of civil, materials, geoenvironmental engineering, landfills, hydrogeology, ground improvement and earthquake geotechnical engineering.
This book presents the select proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Construction, Real Estate, Infrastructure, and Project Management (ICCRIP 2023) and explores recent and innovative developments in all aspects of the CRIP sector. The book covers various issues in construction management, advancements in construction technologies and materials, sustainable construction practices, managerial issues in the CRIP sector, construction 4.0, project management, real estate and urban planning, energy, environment and sustainability. The book will be useful for researchers and professionals involved in construction management, civil engineering and related fields.
Observations on the contemporary Indian politics, Nehru family and the prime ministers.
This book presents recent advances in the field of geomaterial and waste management. With high urbanization rates, advancement in technologies, and changes in consumer behavior, wastes generated through the daily activities of individuals and organizations pose many challenges in terms of their management. The studies presented in this book highlight attempts on the part of researchers and practitioners to address contemporary issues in geoenvironmental engineering such as the characterization of dredged sediments, geomaterials and waste, valorization of waste, sustainability in waste management, and various other geoenvironmental issues that are becoming increasingly relevant in today’s world. The studies were selected from papers presented at the 5th GeoChina International Conference, Civil Infrastructures Confronting Severe Weathers and Climate Changes: From Failure to Sustainability, held in Hangzhou, China on July 23–25, 2018.
