Multiphysics: Advances and Applications

Thermoforming Modeling and Simulation: A Multiphysics Approach concentrates on the modeling and optimization of thermoforming, as well as identifying the structural behavior of thermoplastics used for thermoforming. The book demonstrates the expertise gained through industrial and academic projects in technical transfer. It also illustrates the research and development skills in experimental and numerical modeling of thermoforming. The problem of identifying laws of behavior from experimental data (rheological or mechanical tests in large deformations), using algorithms such as neural networks, is also addressed. Through its multiphysics content, this book is helpful for researchers, teachers and industrialists interested in new advances in thermoforming (characterization of materials, modeling and optimization).

A fairer, healthier, more caring and sustainable society is entirely within our grasp. This book shows us the way. How do we ensure that everyone has good health and is cared for when in need?How do we provide education that allows every child to flourish?How do we ensure safety, justice and a healthy environment now and for future generations?How can we finally solve the problems of poverty and inequality that drive all the others?Kate Pickett is one of the most renowned thinkers and leaders in social science. Her life's work has been to identify the underlying causes behind society's key challenges and how to solve them. In The Good Society she draws on the deepest insights and the strongest evidence produced by social science over the last three decades to present a roadmap for change. Ultimately, she shows that solving the fundamental problems of poverty and equality would enhance the quality of life for us all.

Studies in Comparative Energy and Environmental Politics

In an era of intensified geopolitics and of national-level political gridlock, subnational governments can potentially play an essential role in combating global climate change. Can subnational governments introduce and sustain climate policy actions through changes in political leadership? Why are some local areas doing better than others in delivering on their climate goals?

Plastic is omnipresent in our daily lives. But despite our distress at using it everyday, we often feel powerless to escape it. Because for all the vivid coverage of where plastic ends up, there is remarkably little discussion of where it comes from. Through a shocking investigative deep dive and vivid character-driven storytelling, in Plastic Inc, Beth Gardner tells the story of a vast, rapacious industry hiding in plain sight. From the Gulf Coast of Texas to the rural towns of Indonesia, from the boardrooms to the rubbish dumps, Gardner lifts the rug on the petrochemical companies that make plastics, and reveals the disturbing truth of their origins. For decades Big Oil's masterplan has been to grow plastics in the face of diminishing demand for fossil fuels, and - despite public opinion's call to reduce waste - is preparing to double and eventually triple plastic production by 2050. Gardiner's expose gives readers an up-close look at how the plastics industry has bullied its way into our lives and the global economy. We learn that Big Oil invented the idea of recycling in order to produce more plastic. It funded litter campaigns in order to push responsibility for waste onto the consumer, and put huge resources into fighting plastic bag bans across the US. And with microplastics becoming a huge public health crisis, Big Oil has finally not only forced plastic into our lives but into our bodies too. Plastic Inc is an extraordinary exposé of an industry that will stop at nothing to propel its own greed.

This book presents an integrative and in-depth approach to understanding electricity markets. It combines engineering, economics, and regulatory and public policy, with business analysis. The first part of the book presents the key concepts in these fields relevant to the study of electricity markets. Starting with power engineering basics, the book proceeds to explain how these engineering fundamentals, combined with economic and regulatory theory, are used to design and operate successful electricity markets. With this foundation, business analyses of all sectors of the electric power industry generation, transmission, distribution, retail supply, energy efficiency, and demand response are conducted. The second part of the book contains several chapters on advanced electricity market topics that use the integrative approach developed in the first section. These advanced topics include the history of restructured electricity markets, regulating electricity derivatives, and how to run an energy services company.

Nature wants to heal, and we can help. We know that when Earth's ecosystems fall out of harmony, the damage can spiral out of control. But what if we could help nature to regain its balance? As a leading ecologist, Professor Thomas Crowther studies not just how species work individually but how whole complex ecosystems work to regulate themselves. When we set the right conditions for nature to thrive, each species helps to support the life of every other species. This means not just planting trees, but taking into account the fascinating role of fungi and soil bacteria, as well as the free movement of wild animals. By revealing how the feedback loops that generate sustainable ecosystems give rise to the stars, planets, and life; economic inequality and privilege; and the way we see the world, Nature's Echo shows how we can do our part so that nature can begin the vital process of healing itself.

Nature's Echo

Plastic is omnipresent in our daily lives. But the companies that make it-petrochemical companies which are often subsidiaries of Big Oil like ExxonMobil and Dow Chemical-seem to be hiding in plain sight. Because for all the vivid coverage of where plastic ends up, there is remarkably little discussion of where it comes from. Through a mix of investigative deep dive and vivid character-driven storytelling, Plastic Inc for the first time tells the story of a vast, rapacious industry that, despite public opinion universally calling for less waste and fossil fuel emissions, is preparing to double and eventually triple plastic production by 2050. Award-winning journalist Beth Gardiner gives readers an up-close look at the plastic industry's relentless growth, its manipulation of culture and governments, its extraordinary profits, its toxic pollution and its pivotal role in exacerbating climate change. That for decades Big Oil's masterplan has been to grow plastics in the face of diminishing demand for fossil fuels in a post oil and gas world. Every chapter in Plastic Inc brings new revelations, including: How Big Oil invented the idea of recycling in order to produce more plastic, aware that recycling at scale would never work.How Big Oil created and funded litter campaigns in the 1970s to push responsibility onto the consumer, and away from the producersHow microplastics are becoming a huge public health crisisHow Big oil colludes with US lobby groups and ploughs huge resource into preventing even the smallest town-wide ban on plastic bags or take away containers. The stories in Plastic Inc will reframe for readers a problem many of us think we understand, but which has deeper roots and a more complex future than we can have possibly imagined.

Managing the Future: Sustainability Leadership in Energy offers an invaluable guide on how to lead sustainability within the energy sector by presenting real-world experiences of leaders who have successfully integrated sustainability into their operations. The book outlines the framework provided by the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), emphasizing practical strategies for achieving these goals. The book delves into various aspects, including Sustainability and ESG reporting, the intersection of Sustainability and Geoscience, and effective communication, vision, and strategy setting. It also highlights the contributions of academic leaders in advancing the 2030 UN Sustainability Agenda, and provides narratives from other sectors to illustrate common challenges and opportunities in corporate sustainability initiatives.
