1264015 (Beckman). Engineering Sustainability 2013 will bring together engineers and scientists from academia, government, industry, and non-profits to share results of cutting edge research and practice directed at development of environmentally sustainable buildings and infrastructure, especially urban water infrastructure. The conference is unique in its focus on environmentally sustainable engineering for the urban environment, and its ability to bring together engineers, architects, economists, and urban planners and managers. Plenary presentations and concurrent oral and poster sessions will be organized around the following themes: green building design and construction; greening the indoor environment; sustainable distributed power for the built environment; sustainable urban drinking water, stormwater, and wastewater infrastructure; design of more sustainable transportation grids; using principles of sustainability to foster innovation and new product development. There will also be numerous planned opportunities for informal exchanges and networking. The interdisciplinary presentations on cutting edge research in sustainable engineering for the built environment and infrastructure, the mixture of disciplines and backgrounds represented among the participants, and the networking opportunities provided by the conference will enable participants to leave the conference with new information and ideas about research needs and opportunities. This will strengthen the ability of the participants to develop novel and impactful proposals to organizations funding research in sustainability science and engineering. The conference will further the public interest in sustainable community infrastructure by advancing the state of scientific knowledge of issues affecting human health and the environment. This conference will also enhance interdisciplinary dialogue on environmental sustainability research with cross-cutting applications in basic and applied sciences and engineering.

1264015（贝克曼）。 2013年工程可持续性将汇集来自学术界，政府，工业和非营利组织的工程师和科学家，分享针对开发环境可持续建筑物和基础设施（尤其是城市水基础设施）的尖端研究和实践结果。该会议在城市环境的环境可持续工程上的关注及其将工程师，建筑师，经济学家，城市规划师和经理汇集在一起​​的能力是独一无二的。全体会议以及同时的口头和海报会议将围绕以下主题进行组织：绿色建筑设计和建筑；绿化室内环境；可持续的分布式能力为建筑环境；可持续的城市饮用水，雨水和废水基础设施；设计更可持续的运输网格；利用可持续性原则来促进创新和新产品开发。还将有许多计划的非正式交流和网络机会。有关建筑环境和基础设施的可持续工程尖端研究的跨学科演讲，参与者中所代表的学科和背景的混合以及会议提供的网络机会，使参与者能够为会议提供有关研究需求和机会的新信息和想法。这将增强参与者为可持续性科学和工程学研究的组织提供新颖和有影响力的建议的能力。该会议将通过推进影响人类健康和环境的问题的科学知识的状态来进一步对可持续社区基础设施的公共利益。这次会议还将通过基础科学和工程学中的横切应用程序来增强有关环境可持续性研究的跨学科对话。
