520 _aDefinitions, methodologies, and current applications of the principles of sustainability and resiliency in all engineering disciplines Sustainable and Resilient Engineering provides a comprehensive exploration of the scientific basis, methodologies, and practical applications of sustainability and resiliency in engineering. With an emphasis on the tri-sectoral dimensions of the economy, environment, and society, as well as an increased emphasis on resilience across these dimensions, this textbook equips readers with the knowledge and expertise to evaluate, design, and enhance engineering solutions across a wide range of fields spanning from civil infrastructure and energy engineering to waste management and land use planning. The text also presents a set of case studies across different engineering disciplines such as bio/chemical, environmental, materials, construction, and infrastructure engineering that demonstrate the practical applicability of sustainability and resiliency assessments for a diverse range of projects. The new edition features updated content on sustainability assessment tools and expands on the critical role of resiliency, emphasizing the interplay between sustainability and resiliency, in engineered systems. The new edition of Sustainable and Resilient Engineering also provides updates on topics including: • Climate-resilient engineering basics and assessment methodologies • Role of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, remote sensing, robotics, digital twins, and the Internet of Things in achieving sustainability and resiliency • Sustainable engineered materials, nature-based solutions, and resource recovery • Wastewater treatment as another source for non-potable water use applications • Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) concepts and environmental justice Updated pedagogical features include spreadsheet tools, lecture slides, goals/objectives sections, end-of-chapter problem sets, new exercises and examples, and a solutions manual. Sustainable and Resilient Engineering is an excellent up-to-date textbook for introductory and advanced university courses on sustainability and resiliency. It is also valuable as an advanced manual/reference for practitioners and professionals in their design, review, implementation, advisory, or oversight activities.
