The Geo-Institute of ASCE is calling for volunteers to review review technical papers submitted to the Geo-Congress 2023 and Geo-Risk 2023 conferences.
Serving as a reviewer allows professionals to play a critical role in ensuring the papers published in the conference Proceedings adhere to the quality standards of a Geotechnical Special Publication (GSP). The goal is to publish and present papers of high professional and scientific quality that will have permanent value for geotechnical engineers.
Special topics for Geo-Congress 2023:
- Sustainable Design, Equity, and Social Justice: Environmental, Economic, and Societal aspects of sustainability incorporated into geotechnical engineering
- Spatially Distributed Infrastructure: Quantifying regional resilience of roads, bridges, rail, airports, water, power
- Ports and Harbors: Dredging, retention systems, liquefaction, crane facilities, deep foundations
- Data, Remote Sensing, and Cloud Computing: Big data, data analytics, data integration, GIS
- Virtual / Mixed Reality: Enhanced methods for visualization and public communication
- Carbon Footprint of Construction: Engineering Solutions to reduce the carbon footprint in construction
- Geotechnical Challenges on Major Projects: Sustainability and resilience considerations for current and long-term conditions (e.g., incorporating solar, future expansions)
- Landslide Hazards: Characterization and mitigation of landslides
- Wildfire Hazards: Geotechnical aspects of wildfires and associated debris flows
- Twenty Eight by 28: Preparing for 2028 Olympic Games
- Shake and Bake: Earthquakes, drought, and multi-hazard engineering
For Geo-Risk 2023, chairs will be specifically looking for reviewers with expertise in the following conference topics:
- Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning in Geo-Engineering
- Reliability and Risk Assessment of Existing Geotechnical Infrastructure
