At present, deep earth resources remain poorly understood and entirely under-utilised. There is a growing appreciation of the important role deep earth will play in future sustainability, particularly in opportunities for new and sustainable large-scale energy alternatives, and extraction of resources through mining and greenhouse mitigation. Deep Rock Mechanics: From Research to Engineering is a collection of papers on the effective development of deep earth resources, which were presented at the International Conference on Geo-mechanics, Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources 2018 (Chengdu, P.R. China, 22-24 September 2018). The contributions aim at breaking beyond existing patterns of discovery, to advance research on geomechanical and geophysical processes in deep earth resources and energy development, enhancing deep earth energy and mineral extraction and mitigating harmful atmospheric emissions.

Deep Rock Mechanics: From Research to Engineering covers a wide range of topics:

1. Deep rock mechanics and mining theory2. Water resources development and protection3. Unconventional oil and gas extractions4. CO2 sequestrations technologies and nuclear waste disposal5. Geothermal energy6. Mining engineering7. Petroleum engineering8. Geo-environmental engineering9. Civil geotechnical engineering

Deep Rock Mechanics: From Research to Engineering promotes safer and greener ways for energy and resource production at great depth, and will serve as a must-have reference for academics and professionals involved or interested in geo-mechanics, geo-energy, and geo-resources.

This two-volume set of LNCS 12509 and 12510 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Visual Computing, ISVC 2020, which was supposed to be held in San Diego, CA, USA in October 2020, took place virtually instead due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 114 full and 4 short papers presented in these volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 175 submissions. The papers are organized into the following topical sections:

Part I: deep learning; segmentation; visualization; video analysis and event recognition; ST: computational bioimaging; applications; biometrics; motion and tracking; computer graphics; virtual reality; and ST: computer vision advances in geo-spatial applications and remote sensing

Part II: object recognition/detection/categorization; 3D reconstruction; medical image analysis; vision for robotics; statistical pattern recognition; posters

This book is the first volume of the proceedings of the 15th International Green Energy Conference (IGEC) held in Glasgow, UK from 10-13 July 2023. This meeting is the latest in a multi-disciplinary international conference series on the use of energy with no or reduced environmental, social, and economic impacts. The conference provided a platform for sharing new technical information, disseminating high-quality research results, presenting the latest developments in energy and environment, and debating the shaping of future directions and priorities for sustainable development and energy security.

This conference proceedings is of particular value and interest to researchers, scientists, engineers, and practitioners from relevant fields of energy and environment, from policy-making and technical development to management and marketing.
