With the contributions of the speakers and the strong support of the audience, this webinar series has received significant attention and interest. Now, the webinar series has come to the final stage – namely the Panel Discussion. For the Panel Discussion we have invited some of the speakers from webinar together with some of the participants. The goal is to jointly identify gaps between current industry practice and academic research, challenges and potentials in related educational areas, to clarify the link between academic research and engineering practice, and to solicit the potential for enhanced communication and collaboration on “Risk, Resilience and Sustainability” informed integrity management of infrastructure systems.
