520 _a"Sustainable Engineering : Drivers, Metrics, Tools, Engineering Practices & Applications is the first comprehensive textbook of its kind to cover the definition, methodology and current applications of sustainability and resiliency in the engineering disciplines. The depth coverage is ideal for graduate student across all engineering disciplines and remains a handy resource for the active professionals. This book contains detailed information about the sustainability principles and applications in engineering practice. The book contains the information on how to use the scientific tools for sustainability assessment that will help engineers to select the best alternative for each project or activity. Thus, the systematic use of sustainability and sustainable engineering allow us to contribute towards global sustainable development while solving some of the grand challenges that we are facing today"--
