Kräussl, Zsofia (author), Baida, Ziv (author), Post, Suzanne (author), Rukanova, B.D. (author), Tan, Y. (author)Circular Economy (CE) and sustainability are getting high on the political agenda of governments on the global level. Businesses and supply chains are at the heart of that transition, and need to make big steps in the coming years for making the transition from a linear model of make-use-dispose towards a circular model. For this transition,...conference paper 2022

Rukanova, B.D. (author), Männistö, Toni (author), Hintsa, Juha (author), Tan, Y. (author), Slegt, Micha (author), Heijmann, Frank (author)In this paper we propose a high-level framework for Green Customs which links the policy developments related to circular economy (CE), to customs and related stakeholder groups, customs activities, and customs innovative capabilities. The framework allows customs to better understand these links and identify capability gaps for circular economy...conference paper 2022

Tan, D. (author), Rocco, Roberto (author)Moral knowledge, and its spatial articulation, are being ignored in the rapid urban growth that results from globalisation. The need to learn from tradition and integrate urban heritage values into the wider framework of sustainable development and citizen engagement is urgently recommended by UNESCO. This paper explores the concept of moral...conference paper 2022

Zhang, Chao (author), Tan, Yiqiu (author), Gao, Y. (author), Fu, Yongkang (author), Li, Jilu (author), Li, Shuai (author), Zhou, Xingye (author)The service performances of asphalt pavement, especially rutting, will be inevitably affected by climate change. However, existing studies have generally focused on the rutting depth and rutting life, and thus became insufficient for comprehensively evaluating the influence of climate change on rutting over the service life. A resilience...journal article 2022

(author), Wang, Shuai (author)Compound flooding is generated when two or more flood drivers occur simultaneously or in close succession. Multiple drivers can amplify each other and lead to greater impacts than when they occur in isolation. A better understanding of the interdependence between flood drivers would facilitate a more accurate assessment of compound flood risk...journal article 2022

Hsu, Angel (author), Wang, Xuewei (author), Tan, Jonas (author), Toh, Wayne (author), Goyal, N. (author)Although cities have risen to prominence as climate actors, emissions’ data scarcity has been the primary challenge to evaluating their performance. Here we develop a scalable, replicable machine learning approach for evaluating the mitigation performance for nearly all local administrative areas in Europe from 2001-2018. By combining publicly...journal article 2022
