This book looks into the future of transport infrastructures through green transition, digital transformation, and modern transport infrastructure. It is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of green transition in transport infrastructures (eco-design and life cycle assessment, recycled and alternative materials, and bio-based materials and technologies). This is preceded by an overview of related initiatives in the EU and the US. The second part describes intelligent and digital transformation aspects in geotechnical engineering, including geotechnical databases, sensing and monitorization, and machine learning tools and optimization. The third part presents transport infrastructure case studies that demonstrate the contribution of geotechnical engineering to creating smarter, more efficient, more resilient, and more sustainable infrastructures. With 14 chapters, this book serves as a reference tool for academics and engineers in the fields involved or interested in the design, construction, and maintenance of transportation geotechnical infrastructures.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
