Engineering applications in sustainable design and development / Sustainable design and development by Bradley A. Striebig, Adebayo A. Ogundipe, and Maria Papadakis - Boston, MA : Cengage Learning, 2016 - xvi, 762 pages : illustrations (chiefly color), maps (chiefly color) ; 27 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Sustainability, engineering, and design -- Analyzing sustainability using engineering science -- Biogeochemical cycles -- Water quality impacts -- Impacts on air quality -- The carbon cycle and energy balances -- Models for sustainable engineering -- Enegery conservation and development -- Industrial ecology -- Life cycle analysis -- Sustainability and the built environment -- Challenges and opportunities for sustainability in practice.
ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS IN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT is an invaluable resource for today's engineering student. Focusing on pressing contemporary issues, the text puts product design in the context of models of sustainability. Relevant case studies from across the globe will be of interest to engineers in training, and active learning exercises in each chapter help students learn to apply theory to real-world situations.
