Heating and cooling systems in buildings account for 31% of global energy use. Many of these systems are regulated by Rule Based Controllers (RBCs) that neither maximise energy...
Materials are essential for creating the systems used in everyday life, yet, manufacturing materials emits large quantities of greenhouse gases (GHG). Emissions from material production have been estimated...
Secure housing is core to the Sustainable Development Goals and a fundamental human right. However, potential conflicts between housing and sustainability objectives remain under-researched. We explore the impact...
Globally, road pavement networks generate significant economic investment and environmental impact during the construction, maintenance, and operation of road infrastructure. It is a sustainability requirement to reduce pavement...
Traceability information systems in food supply chains can suffer from information loss, and this can cause food safety crises and economic downturns around the world. Information loss happens...
UK law commits us to zero emissions by 2050 with most of the reduction occurring by 2035. Corporate and political strategy today is counting on new technologies, like...
The plastic industry is dependent on fossil fuels in various ways that result in strong “carbon lock-in” throughout the value chain and large and growing CO2 emissions. Carbon lock-in...
For this study, energy and material flows are visualised in the form of Sankey diagrams [1] where material and energy flows are traced from material and energy sources,...
Concrete is the most used material on the planet. We rely on many forms of concrete each day, from pavers that we walk on to high-performance structural concrete...
