The infrastructure on which we all depend is built and maintained by civil and hydraulic engineers.
This book presents the proceedings of HCET2024, the 9th International Technical Conference on Frontiers of Hydraulic and Civil Engineering Technology, held from 25 to 27 September 2024 in Sanya, China. The HCET conferences offer a global exchange platform, with the goal of generating new knowledge, technology and applications in hydraulic engineering and civil engineering by forging and expanding new international communications, intercultural and interdisciplinary research networks and partnerships, and the conference series continues to offer an important opportunity for modern engineering communities to share research and best practice and facilitate discussion. The conference committee received 428 submissions of international papers for this year’s conference. All were peer-reviewed using a double-blind review process by a panel of at least two international expert referees, and decisions were based on the research quality of the papers. A total of 199 papers were ultimately accepted for presentation and publication, representing an acceptance rate of 46%. The book is organized into 8 sections according to theme: civil engineering and technology; materials for construction and civil engineering; water conservancy and hydropower engineering; geotechnical, geological and underground engineering; road and bridge engineering; transportation engineering; coal science and technology, energy and environmental engineering; and optimization, simulation technology and interdisciplinary applications.
Covering a wide range of topics, the book provides a current overview of research and developments, and will be of interest to all those working in the fields of hydraulic and civil engineering.
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Intelligent Traffic and Transportation (ICITT), incorporating the 8th International Conference on Communication and Network Technology (ICCNT), Florence, Italy, 16-18 September
