The Belt and Road Initiative: A Millennium Transformation of China with the World

Belt and Road (B &amp; R) Initiative is a global infrastructure development strategy adopted by the Chinese government in 2013 to invest in nearly 70 countries and international organization. One of the major aims of B &amp; R is to develop intellectual capacity and establish strong research and education cooperation among various countries and regions.In this regard, this Belt and Road Webinar Series is being held with an aim to connect young scholars among B &amp; R countries as well as to identify mutually interested research topics. The theme is “Geotechnics, Energy and Environment”, on which related topics will be discussed and communicated. During the webinar series, well known experts will be invited to give keynote and invited lectures on up-to-date research findings, hotspots and difficult issues in geotechnics, energy and environment, especially in context of B &amp; R countries.

<h3>TOPICS</h3>Topics include but are not limited to:◎Improving policy and science &amp; technology interface◎Geotechnical challenges of mega projects◎Engineering characteristics of problematic soils and rocks◎Field Investigation and monitoring of geohazards◎Slope stability analysis and landslide early warning◎Recent innovations in foundation engineering◎Ground improvement using MICP and biopolymers◎Construction &amp; operation of rail transit &amp; utility tunnels◎Performance evaluation of tunnels and underground pipelines◎Intelligent monitoring in mining engineering◎Geomechanics and geotechnics in petroleum production◎Clean energy development◎Oil and water storage◎Soil reinforcement using fibers and other materials◎Soil amendment with biochar◎Soil &amp; water conservation and remediation◎Sustainable development and energy derived from the ground◎Climate change and soil-atmosphere interaction◎Numerical simulation in geotechnics, energy and environment◎New frontiers and interdisciplinary fields

<h3>CALL FOR PAPERS</h3>Selected authors would be notified to submit full-length papers as per format consistent with “Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering” (Elsevier) and “Lectures Notes in Civil Engineering” (Springer). The details related to paper submission would be revealed after the completion of webinar series. All the accepted papers will be published in a special issue and proceedings tentatively.
