| 英文摘要 | Geotechnical engineering structures, such as dams, embankments, and retaining walls, are integral components of modern infrastructure, and geoenvironmental engineering systems, such as landfills and impoundments, hold paramount importance in the context of environment and public health. However, the construction and maintenance of these systems are energy and resource-intensive, consuming substantial natural resources and consequently increasing greenhouse gas emissions, thus contributing to global climate change. As the world faces the challenges of rapid climate change, there is an increasing demand for engineering practices and projects that are not only resilient to climate change impacts but also sustainable in the long-term. This article first presents the definitions of resilience and sustainability, highlights the necessity of integrating these concepts, and emphasizes the importance of incorporating both resilience and sustainability into geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering practices. Next, an overview of quantitative frameworks, specifically the Quantitative Assessment of Life Cycle Sustainability (QUALICS) and the Tiered Quantitative Assessment of Life Cycle Sustainability and Resilience (TQUALICSR), is presented. These frameworks can be used to quantify the life cycle resilience and sustainability of engineered systems. Additionally, various case studies demonstrating the application of these frameworks are presented, highlighting their flexibility and adaptability across a wide range of projects. The traditional design and build approach of engineering practice may not suffice in achieving both resilience and sustainability, thus necessitating innovative engineering practices that can effectively integrate these two essential aspects. Nature-based solutions, such as green infrastructure, floodable parks, and phytoremediation, offer a promising approach for enhancing sustainability and resilience in geotechnical and geoenvironmental systems. These innovative solutions, which require multi-disciplinary expertise and expanded field-scale implementations, address a wide range of environmental, economic, and social issues including unemployment, inequality, land degradation, disaster risk, biodiversity loss, and climate change. In conclusion, this study emphasizes the essential paradigm shift needed to attain sustainability and resilience in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering. It highlights the importance of integrating sustainability and resilience quantification metrics through established frameworks. Additionally, the article emphasizes the adoption of innovative engineering solutions, such as nature-based solutions, which is key to advancing both sustainability and resilience in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering practices. |
