20、rofessor in Civil Engineering University of Minho Braga,PortugalForeword by Javier L.Lara All through history,progress in engineering has made possible the development of mankind,allowing over the years a significant improvement in peoples quality of life.In this sense,civil engineering has played a

21、 fundamental role in the ability of human beings to adapt to their environment thanks to the construction of infrastructures that have facilitated the transport of materials and people,communication,the capture of natural resources or their own residence and coexistence.This has been possible thanks

26、 change.All these challenges,and others that will appear throughout the century,will therefore require the development of new science and new knowledge.It is in this area where experimental techniques play a very relevant role.Computational techniques have developed considerably in the last decades

27、and are now an everyday element of the engineers work.Additionally,in recent years,techniques based on artificial intelligence have emerged with great efficiency showing their high applicability in the field of civil engineering.However,experimental techniques are still a very important approach to
