By adopting the concept of modularity, this paper introduced an optimal framework which facilitates life cycle assessment and life cycle cost assessment, thereby supporting rapid and reliable decision-making in the marine industry. The benefits of the proposed framework were discussed through two case studies where the optimal configurations of marine propulsion systems were determined from the economic and environmental perspectives. First, the performance of a short-route ferry using the hybrid system was compared with those of equivalent ships using diesel-electric and diesel-mechanical propulsion systems respectively. Research findings revealed the excellence of the hybrid system in both economic and environmental aspects. Second, the same method was applied to an offshore tug vessel to determine an optimal engine configuration. Results of analysis emphasised that the selection of multiple small sized engines is more effective than two medium-sized engines. Both studies have proven that the proposed framework would be useful and practical for accelerating the life cycle analysis which allows ship designers and owners to obtain the long-term view of economic and environmental impacts for particular products or systems without demanding process. The paper also opened up the possibility of extending the application of the proposed framework to the areas where proper decision-making is essential but under-used.

Evaluating the mine plan alternatives with respect to bottom-up and top-down sustainability criteria
Yaylaci, Evren Deniz; Düzgün, Hafize Şebnem (Elsevier BV, 2017-11-20)
The previous researches on sustainability evaluation for the mining sector indicate that the tailor-made integrated frameworks should have the capabilities of integrating the stakeholder-focused information as effectively as operational information into the evaluation and reporting process. In this regard, this paper proposes an indicator-based quantitative evaluation framework for integrating the concerns and priorities of the local stakeholders into the evaluation of sustainability in the mining sector op...
A methodology for evaluating environmental co-benefits in the transport sector: application to the Delhi metro
Doll, Christopher N. H.; Balaban, Osman (Elsevier BV, 2013-11-01)
This paper presents a methodology to measure the environmental co-benefits of transport initiatives, defined here as carbon emissions in conjunction with local air pollution. An evaluation tool was developed and then tested on the case of the Delhi metro. The metro is an extensive rail project spanning the Indian capital, which is also the world's first rail based Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project. However, it has also been a flashpoint in urban policy-making in the city in recent years. This analys...
A novel hybrid method using fuzzy decision making and multi-objective programming for sustainable-reliable supplier selection in two-echelon supply chain design
Tirkolaee, Erfan Babaee; Mardani, Abbas; Dashtian, Zahra; Soltani, Mehdi; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (Elsevier BV, 2020-03-20)
Recently, large companies have shown a growing tendency to enhance the reliability and sustainability of their supply chains to increase customers' satisfaction in terms of on-time fulfillment of demands and to be compatible with environmental regulations. Therefore, finding the best approaches to achieve companies' goals is a crucial concern in supply chain management, and the majority of organizations prefer to cooperate with reliable and sustainable companies. In designing a supply chain, the supplier se...
Non-thermal production of pure hydrogen from biomass: HYVOLUTION
Claassen, Pieternel A. M.; de Vrije, Truus; Koukios, Emmanuel; van Niel, Ed; Eroğlu, İnci; Modigell, Michael; Friedl, Anton; Wukovits, Walter; Ahrer, Werner (Elsevier BV, 2010-01-01)
The objectives and methodology of the EU-funded research project HYVOLUTION devoted to hydrogen production from biomass are reviewed.
Institutional framework for urban development with co-benefits: the Indian experience
Doll, Christopher N. H.; Dreyfus, Magali; Ahmad, Sohail; Balaban, Osman (Elsevier BV, 2013-11-01)
The co-benefits approach has been proposed as a means for mainstreaming environmental concerns into urban development, especially in developing countries. This paper reviews the Indian situation setting out the urban-environmental challenge. National policies related to urban development, climate change and specific sectors are examined and then, with the aid of cases, analysed to understand the strengths and weaknesses of generating co-benefits in the world's second most populous country.
