A new lightweight design method integrating shape optimization with life cycle assessment for extrusion dies (2017)
Journal Article
He, Y., Huang, T., Wang, Y., Nie, Y., Li, Y., & Wang, Y. (2017). A new lightweight design method integrating shape optimization with life cycle assessment for extrusion dies. Journal of Cleaner Production, 150, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2017.02.186

Extrusion dies, in which melted raw materials are forced continuously into a profile to produce various plastic products, are often empirically designed leading to overweight and waste in materials, energy and emissions. Lightweight design method has... Read More about A new lightweight design method integrating shape optimization with life cycle assessment for extrusion dies.

Capturing residents’ values for urban green space: Mapping, analysis and guidance for practice (2017)
Journal Article
Ives, C. D., Oke, C., Hehir, A., Gordon, A., Wang, Y., & Bekessy, S. A. (2017). Capturing residents’ values for urban green space: Mapping, analysis and guidance for practice. Landscape and Urban Planning, 161, 32-43. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landurbplan.2016.12.010

Planning for green space is guided by standards and guidelines but there is currently little understanding of the variety of values people assign to green spaces or their determinants. Land use planners need to know what values are associated with di... Read More about Capturing residents’ values for urban green space: Mapping, analysis and guidance for practice.
