Welcome to the 2023 International Joint Conference on Civil and Marine Engineering (JCCME 2023) in Dalian, China, hosted by Dalian University of Technology and Dalian Maritime University, on November 3-6, 2023. JCCME combines Academia with Industry to adapt scientific achievements into practical applications in the field of Civil and Marine Engineering.

We, the organizers, are very excited to greet you. JCCME 2023 will promote the relevant engineering research and applications in a vast range of topics, including port and coastal engineering, offshore engineering, fluid-structure interactions, intelligent maritime structures, maritime rescue and salvage technologies, ocean energy extraction, maritime sensor and sensing technologies, mechatronic components and systems under ocean or subsea environment, maritime related strategy and planning, and polar region technologies. 

JCCME gives researchers and engineers from around the world the opportunity to present and discuss recent developments in the field. The event will offer a pleasant environment to establish avenues of new cooperation and work. All accepted and presented papers will be published in digital conference proceeding, which will send to be reviewed and indexed by major citation databases such as Ei Compendex, Scopus, CPCI, Google Scholar etc. Excellent papers will be considered for submission in Special Issue "Marine Geotechnical Engineering and Marine Civil Engineering Construction (Volume II)" after significant extension. As an incentive, the best student submission and the best reviewers will be acknowledged with Best Student Paper Award and Best Reviewers, respectively.

JCCME 2023 is hosted by Dalian University of Technology and Dalian Maritime University, in collaboration with Hainan University and Chongqing Jiaotong University. Dalian, the largest port in northern China, is a spectacular city with the longest natural coastline of China, many times ranked as one of the most liveable cities in the world. The location of the conference is near the coast. We warmly welcome you to Dalian and encourage you to take time to wander through the city and experience all the other aspects of life in Dalian whilst you are here for JCCME 2023.

We hope you all will have a memorable and enjoyable experience here. Meanwhile, on behalf of the JCCME 2023 organizing committee, we would like to express heartfelt thanks to all the participants, keynote speakers, sponsors and volunteers who make this conference possible.
