1. Industrial Ecology Approaches to Improve Metal Management : Three Modeling Experiments
Abstract : A linear model of consumption − produce-use-dispose − has constantly increased the pressure on the environment in recent decades. There has been a great belief that technology will solve the problem, but in many cases it is only partly contributing to the solution. For a full solution, the root causes of problems need to be identified. READ MORE

2. Systems Modeling Approaches to Physical Resource Management : An Industrial Ecology Perspective
Abstract : Many of the present problems that we are facing arise as unanticipated side-effects of our own actions. Moreover, the solutions implemented to solve important problems often create new problems. To avoid unintended consequences, understanding complex systems is essential in devising policy instruments and in improving environmental management. READ MORE

5. On the Realization of Credible Simulations in Aircraft Development : Efficient and Independent Validation Enabled by Automation
Abstract : Designing modern aircraft is not an easy task. Today, it is not enough to optimize aircraft subsystems at a subsystem level. Instead, a holistic approach is necessary whereby the constituent subsystems need to be designed for the best joint performance. READ MORE
