Integrated environmental management system with environmental performance evalutation across the supply chain: A systematic and balanced scorecard approach

This research has explored environmental sustainability related literature and has performed a case study analysis on a timber and building material wholesale company relating to its environmental aspects. Published work focuses on either environmental management systems (EMS) or environmental performance evaluation (EPE). The integration of...

Interactive Evaluation of the Reliability of Engineered Slopes Utilising Multi-source Monitoring Information

Important engineered slopes are often heavily instrumented and their performance routinely monitored through these instruments. The evaluation of the safety of the slopes based on the monitored information is however a challenge. A systematic method is presented in this paper for evaluating the slope safety by combining multi-source monitoring...

Compressible Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing under different acceleration histories

Compressible Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing (CRTM) induced by Rayleigh-Taylor instability occurs when a compressible fluid of heavy density is accelerated or supported against gravity by a compressible fluid of light density, and is of fundamental importance in applications from combustion, to inertial confinement fusion, and to astrophysics....
