Major topics covered include hydrological alterations under climate change, smart water management, sustainable slope stability solutions, sustainable water management and climate-smart agriculture, conservation of wetlands, influence of phase change materials on thermal properties, building information modeling (BIM) for sustainable and affordable construction, and so forth.Features:Combines concepts of civil engineering and sustainable development for future infrastructuresIncludes hydrological alterations under climate change impactsCovers prudent fiduciary discipline and effective cost management in the construction of buildings and critical infrastructureDiscusses BIM and cost-effective sustainable constructionReviews hybrid artificial intelligence in civil infrastructure to attain SDGs #9 (industry, innovation and infrastructure) and #11 (sustainable cities and communities)This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in civil engineering, sustainable development, risk management, GIS, and water.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, in collaboration with the UNESCO Chair on Experiential Learning for Sustainable Innovation and Development, the Amrita School for Sustainable Futures (ASF), and the Centre for Wireless Networks and Applications, convened the International Conference on Tsunami Risk Reduction and Resilience. At the conference, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers jointly explored key learnings, reflections, and innovations since the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. Key themes include tools for enhancing tsunami preparedness and mitigation; models and systems for tsunami detection, monitoring, forecasting, and early warning; sharing best practices and evaluating existing systems and tools; fostering community resilience; enhancing collaborative platforms for cross-border data sharing and response coordination; and leveraging innovations like AI for improved prediction and risk assessment.  By advancing Sustainable Development Goals 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and 13 (Climate Action), the contributions presented at the conference support resilient infrastructure and preparedness to mitigate the impacts of natural disasters, contributing to a safer and more resilient future for coastal communities worldwide.

The topics covered include geographic information systems (GIS) and building information modeling (BIM), integration of numerical methods for fluid flow modeling, and the revolutionary potential of 3D printing within the construction industry.
