"Design and Manufacture for Sustainable Development" brings
together a collection of papers from a conference held at the
University of Liverpool in June 2002 that inspire the interchange
of ideas on the theory, technology, tools, and methodology for the
entire product life cycle within the framework of sustainable
development. It also embraces key subjects including strategy,
design, materials, manufacturing, packaging, distribution,
disposal, recycling, and auditing.
TOPICS COVERED INCLUDE: Philosophy of, and strategy for,
sustainable technologiesDesign principles for sustainable
developmentSustainable manufacturing technologiesUse of
recycling/bio-degradable materialsRe-use and recycling design and
technologiesTools for sustainable product designMeasurement and
auditingBest practices and case studiesImpact of emerging
legislationInternational trends and future development.
Sustainable development will have a fundamental impact on the
engineering community since, through design and manufacture, we are
responsible for the use of energy, materials, and processes for the
complete product life cycle. This is an essential volume for the
bookshelves of those wanting to be well informed about this
evolving technology.
