Abstract
This report is a general study of strategic planning in three major fields of engineering discipline: architecture and civil engineering, environment and trafc engineering, and water conservancy and marine engineering, including architecture and urban and rural human settlement, civil engineering, environmental engineering, traffic engineering, hydraulic engineering, and marine engineering.
1. Scientifc signifcance and strategic value of this discipline feld
Engineering discipline is based on natural sciences and uses the knowledge of natural sciences to study the operation law of man-made materials and systems. With the gradual integration of material science, information technology, artificial intelligence and other high and new technologies, multidisciplinary cross connection and integration has become an important development direction of engineering discipline, which also provides a constant impetus for the development of engineering discipline. At the same time, the development demand for engineering system and engineering discipline has also put forward more brand-new problems and challenges for basic natural science.
China has turned to the stage of high-quality development, but the problems of unbalanced and insufficient development are still prominent. The task of reforming key links in key areas is still arduous. The innovation capacity does not meet the requirements of high-quality development. The gap between urban and rural regional development is large. Ecological and environmental protection has a long way to go. There are shortcomings in people’s livelihood protection. And there are still weaknesses in social governance. Thus, there is an urgent need for engineering discipline to provide solutions to the above problems. Many goals, tasks, major strategies and major projects proposed in the Outline of the 14th Five-Year Plan(2021—2025) for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035 of the People’s Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the Outline) are closely related to the disciplines of architecture and civil engineering, environment and traffic engineering, water conservancy and marine engineering, which urgently need strong support and guarantee from the basic research of related engineering discipline. The “Double Carbon” goal and Opinions on the Complete and Accurate Implementation of the New Development Concept for Carbon Neutralization have put forward new requirements for the development direction of engineering disciplines, which will have an important impact on the future research of related disciplines.
2. Research characteristics and development rules of this discipline field
The research characteristics of engineering discipline includes the following aspects. (1) Engineering discipline takes natural sciences as the cornerstone and the integration of science and technology as the characteristics. With the development of human society, the functions and structures of engineering systems are becoming more and more complex, and engineering discipline is more and more rooted in a broad natural science foundation, while high and new technology plays an increasingly important role in engineering discipline. (2) Engineering discipline aims at realizing and guaranteeing system function and takes the challenge limits as the driving force of development. While designing, manufacturing, realizing and guaranteeing system function, they constantly challenge the limits of system function, performance, scale and environment. (3) Engineering discipline takes interdisciplinary intersection and integration as the source of innovation. The development of related disciplines and the continuous cross connection among them provide more and more new research directions for engineering discipline. For example, the cross-fusion of materials, information, transportation, environment, machinery, control and energy disciplines with architecture and civil engineering discipline has promoted basic innovative research; diversified disciplinary intersection and the introduction of new technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence have provided impetus for the original innovation of basic theories, the breakthroughs in disruptive technologies and the formulation of comprehensive solutions to complex environmental problems in the environmental engineering discipline; modern transportation systems rely on civil engineering, system and information science, behavior and control science, management science and other disciplines, showing the interdisciplinary nature originated in civil engineering and multidisciplinary integration.
The development rules of engineering discipline include the following aspects. (1) Complex systems promote the research of complex scientific problems in engineering discipline. With the development of giant complex engineering system, the coupling effect of the system becomes more and more significant, and the nonlinear behavior and mechanism of engineering systems and various nonlinear coupling put forward a lot of complexity scientific problems to engineering disciplines. (2) Safety and controllability are the core scientifc problems of engineering discipline. Engineering systems serve in the natural environment and inevitably face the test of extremely harsh environment and natural disasters. Meanwhile, the complexity, diversity of functions, extremity of performance, uncertainty of environment, and limitation of science also bring hidden dangers to engineering systems, thus the designability, safety and controllability of systems become the most basic scientific problems of engineering discipline. (3) Sustainability is the development direction of engineering discipline. The global energy crisis, environmental degradation and resource shortage require human society to refect on and adjust our own behavior patterns in order to maintain the sustainable development of economy and society. Engineering systems not only need to be improved and upgraded in a single link, but also need to be optimized synergistically from the whole life cycle of planning and design, production and construction, operation and service, and management and maintenance to provide key support for the sustainable development of society.
