These fundamental research frontiers are critically reviewed and described in details in lights of four grand challenges our society faces: climate adaptation, urban sustainability, energy and material resources, and global water resources. The specific areas critically reviewed, carefully examined, and envisioned are: sensing and measurement, soil properties and their physics roots, multiscale and multiphysics processes in soil, geochemical processes for resilient and sustainable geosystems, biological processes in geotechnics, unsaturated soil mechanics, coupled flow processes in soil, thermal processes in geotechnical engineering, and rock mechanics in the 21st century. 000890737 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on June 11, 2019). 000890737 650_0 $$aGeotechnical engineering. 000890737 7001_ $$aLu, Ning,$$d1960-$$eeditor. 000890737 7001_ $$aMitchell, James K.$$q(James Kenneth),$$d1930-$$eeditor. 000890737 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aLu, Ning$$tGeotechnical Fundamentals for Addressing New World Challenges$$dCham : Springer,c2019$$z9783030062484 000890737 830_0 $$aSpringer series in geomechanics and geoengineering. 000890737 852__ $$bebk 000890737 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-06249-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890737 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890737$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890737 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890737 980__ $$aBIB 000890737 982__ $$aEbook 000890737 983__ $$aOnline 000890737 994__ $$a92$$bISE
