5. Toward an Integrated Decision Support Framework for Sustainability CAE
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7909
Topic: Sustainable Manufacturing
Published: 4/22/2013
Authors: Lalit Patil, Lakshmi Srinivas, Krishna Murthy, Debasish Dutta, Rachuri Rachuri
Abstract: Sustainability evaluation is typically conducted after the product is completely designed. However, sustainability, like cost and weight, needs to be managed on a continuous basis, throughout the product development cycle. This requires a decisio ...
