This volume compiles topics from the REWAS 2013 symposium at the
TMS Annual Meeting, focusing on different aspects of
sustainability. It discusses how to realize sustainability in such
areas as transportation, the built environment, electrical and
electronic equipment and infrastructure, energy production, and
water systems. Enabling sustainability topics include the use of
metals and materials processing, recycling and recovery, as well as
process design and modeling. The book focuses on understanding
sustainability through life cycle management and analysis, systems
modeling and design, and education and consumer awareness.
With impending and burgeoning societal issues affecting both
developed and emerging nations, the global engineering community
has a responsibility and an opportunity to truly make a difference
and contribute. The papers in this collection address what
materials and resources are integral to meeting basic societal
sustainability needs in critical areas of energy, transportation,
housing, and recycling. Contributions focus on the engineering
answers for cost-effective, sustainable pathways; the strategies
for effective use of engineering solutions; and the role of the
global engineering community. Authors share perspectives on the
major engineering challenges that face our world today; identify,
discuss, and prioritize engineering solution needs; and establish
how these fit into developing global-demand pressures for materials
and human resources.
