Integrated Urban Infrastructure Systems

由于城市对地球的影响和对我们社会的价值，城市的可持续性和复原力是国家和全球关注的问题。理解、规划和设计城市和城市基础设施系统的可持续性和复原力充满了挑战。这些问题包括如何规划有成效和高效率的全系统恢复工作，以及如何实施基础设施系统，使其对当地和全球资源和废物吸收方面的限制很敏感。

The sustainability and resiliency of cities is of national and global concern due to their impact on the planet and their value to our society. Understanding, planning and designing for sustainability and resiliency of cities and urban infrastructure systems is fraught with challenges. These include how to plan for effective and efficient system-wide recovery and how to implement infrastructure systems such that they are sensitive to local and global resource and waste absorption constraints.
