The concept of resilience has been gaining momentum in various fields in recent years and has been used in various ways from a catch phrase to a cornerstone in theoretic development or practical operation. No matter how it is used, it does contribute one way or another to the refinement and application of the concept. This book focuses on the application of the resilience concept to flood disaster management. This book is a collection of research works conducted across the world and across sectors. Therefore, it is a good example of how different perspectives can catalyze our insight into complex flood-related issues. It can be considered valuable reading material for students, researchers, policymakers and practitioners, because it provides both the fundamentals and new development of resilience-based approaches and delivers a message that the goal of resilience-based flood management goes beyond disaster reduction.

This book is a collection of peer-reviewed and presented papers from the 2024 11th International Conference on Geological and Civil Engineering. The event was held in Matsue City, Japan, March 15–17, 2024, which provided a platform for researchers, engineers, academicians, as well as industrial professionals from all over the world to present their latest research results and development activities in geological and civil engineering. As a result, various topics were discussed in this book, including geological engineering, geotechnical engineering, civil and structural engineering, bridge engineering, building structure and bridge engineering, building technology, cartography and geographic information system, coastal engineering, surveying and geo-informatics, surveying and photogrammetry, tunnel, subway construction, underground facilities, and urban planning. The research outcomes included in this book are useful for better understanding what issues geological and civil engineering researchers are currently concerned with and what are frontiers in research approaches and technology advancement to meet the challenges today. It also provided various hints and inspirations for young researchers and engineers to pursue excellence. .

Urban areas face daunting environmental, economic and social challenges that have increased in scope in recent years, especially given climate change and globalization. At the same time, cities provide exciting opportunities for growth and revitalization of local and national economies. The interplay of these challenges and opportunities create important tasks for policymakers and researchers. This book provides a new horizon for exploring solutions to urban problems, especially water-related disasters in urban areas. It is of a cross-disciplinary nature offering both new concepts and practices that will help to promote communication between urban planning communities and water management professionals in order to integrate water-related disaster management into spatial planning. .
