Operational Research for Renewable Energy and Sustainable Environments
The application of contemporary and emerging operational research optimization methods in renewable energy is vital to creating and maintaining sustainable environments across the planet. More research is needed to understand how modern and innovative technological solutions can enhance accessible global energy. Operational Research for Renewable Energy and Sustainable Environments is a critical scholarly resource that examines the efficient use of modern electrical technology and renewable energy sources that have a positive impact on sustainable development. Highlighting topics such as cogeneration thermal modules, photovoltaic (PV) solar, and renewable energy systems (RES) application practices, this publication is geared towards academics, advocates, government officials, policymakers, humanized managers, practitioners, professionals, and students interested in the latest research on renewable energy and clean technology for sustainable rural development.
Intelligent Computing and Optimization
This book presents the outcomes of the second edition of the International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Optimization (ICO) – ICO 2019, which took place on October 3–4, 2019, in Koh Samui, Thailand. Bringing together research scholars, experts, and investigators from around the globe, the conference provided a platform to share novel research findings, recent advances and innovative applications in the field. Discussing the need for smart disciplinary processes embedded into interdisciplinary collaborations in the context of meeting the growing global populations’ requirements, such as food and health care, the book highlights the role of intelligent computation and optimization as key technologies in decision-making processes and in providing cutting edge solutions to real-world problems.
Smart Applications with Advanced Machine Learning and Human-Centred Problem Design
This book brings together the most recent, quality research papers accepted and presented in the 3rd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Applied Mathematics in Engineering (ICAIAME 2021) held in Antalya, Turkey between 1-3 October 2021. Objective of the content is to provide important and innovative research for developments-improvements within different engineering fields, which are highly interested in using artificial intelligence and applied mathematics. As a collection of the outputs from the ICAIAME 2021, the book is specifically considering research outcomes including advanced use of machine learning and careful problem designs on human-centred aspects. In this context, it aims to provide recent applications for real-world improvements making life easier and more sustainable for especially humans. The book targets the researchers, degree students, and practitioners from both academia and the industry.

Tools, Methodologies and Techniques Applied to Sustainable Supply Chains
Supply chains are currently globalized and companies operate internationally owing to the fact that raw materials, production processes, and the consumption of the final products are carried out in different countries. This implies high material and information flow, which incurs high costs associated with the supply chain and logistics, sometimes up to 60% of the total cost of the product. Therefore, companies seek to optimize their resources to reduce these costs and improve sustainability in a globalized market. This book, entitled Tools, Methodologies and Techniques Applied to Sustainable Supply Chains, contains 15 chapters that report case studies applied to industrial and service secto...
The Role of Female Leaders in Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
The world is in a race against time to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) by 2030. Despite global efforts to address these ambitious goals, progress remains uneven, and significant gaps persist. Women are often underrepresented and underutilized in leadership positions, yet they possess untapped potential to be formidable forces of change. The Role of Female Leaders in Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals is an exploration into the role of female leaders in overcoming the challenges that hinder the realization of the UN SDGs. It makes clear that the reality of achieving these goals requires a seismic shift in leadership dynamics, with women at the foref...
Implications of Nanoecotoxicology on Environmental Sustainability
Nanotechnology is considered a tool for solving problems and providing comfort for the livelihood of human beings and other animals. The use of nanoparticles in the last decade has grown rapidly and is currently used often. Nanotechnology can improve agricultural processes, such as soil quality and the quality of agricultural products, and provide specific applications for sustainable development. However, there are consequences of using these nanoparticles in today’s agriculture. The physicochemical properties of nanoparticles are the basis for several useful applications but also affect humans and ecosystems adversely. A new branch of toxicology, nanotoxicology, needs to address the spec...
