Carbon footprint is a new buzzword that has gained tremendous popularity over the last few years—especially in United Kingdom. Debates on appropriate use of carbon footprinting are spreading through society like rings water. This large part been driven by retail chains and proactive companies request or provide information to consumers—for example, for purchase airplane tickets offsets. It interesting not research but rather promoted nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), companies, various...
Abstract In a world where systems are increasingly larger, their boundaries often difficult to identify, and societal rather than technical issues play bigger roles, problems cannot be solved by applying solution alone. It thus becomes important for engineers skilled not only in terms of particular field but also ability identify non-technical aspects problems, the interaction between these possible solutions. Introducing integrating into engineering education is certainly an easy task...
This article presents an overview of current Industry 4.0 applied research topics, addressed from both the industrial production and wireless communication points view. A roadmap toward achieving more advanced manufacturing visions concepts, such as "swarm production" (nonlinear fully decentralized production) is defined, highlighting relevant use cases, their associated requirements, well integrated technological solutions applicable to each them. Further, introduces Aalborg University 5G...
The fourth industrial revolution, or Industry 4.0 (I4.0), makes use of wireless technologies together with other Internet-of-Things (IIoT) technologies, cyber–physical systems (CPS), and edge computing to enable the optimization faster re-configuration production processes. As I4.0 deployments are ramping up, practical integration 5G existing applications is being explored in both Academia, order find optimized strategies develop guidelines oriented towards ensuring success digitalization...
Purpose This article aims to discuss the contradiction between signing an agreement work for sustainable universities and lack of practical commitment in one case, namely at Aalborg University (AAU). Focus is placed both on University's core processes such as education, research outreach; necessary inputs outputs related transport, food operation, maintenance buildings, university's products counting published results educated students researchers. Design/methodology/approach The study based...
In this paper, we present results on the application of machine learning to detection human presence and estimation number occupants in our offices using data from an IoT LoRa-based indoor environment monitoring system at Aalborg University, Denmark. We cast problem as either binary or multi-class classification apply a two-layer feed forward neural network data. The used for training, validation testing comprises environmental sensors manual recordings door window states. Results show that...
Improper management of pig manure has resulted in environmental problems such as surface water eutrophication, ground pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. This study develops compares 14 alternative scenarios aiming at energy nutrient extraction. The based on combinations thermal pretreatment, anaerobic digestion, co-digestion, liquid/solid separation, drying, incineration, gasification were compared with respect to their energy, balances. Both sole mixed other types waste materials...
Since its introduction into Danish planning in 1989, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been widely discussed. At the centre of debate question whether EIA actually offered anything new and there a great deal scepticism about efficacy instrument. Although, principle offers holistic proactive methodology, it does not seem to lead more regulation which covers ground than traditional environmental regulation. In an evaluation experiences, this study looked closely at effects EIA. Three...
Renewable energy has been prioritized in Danish policy since the early 1980s. This led to current situation where Denmark is one of leading countries world field wind utilization. The background for this success a story about how society can manage development and diffusion sustainable technologies so that they are simultaneously socially acceptable environmentally benign. Consequently, article describes relationship between organization power protection nature. aim analyse which kinds...
Abstract Responsible leadership is not just about creating value for shareholders. This viewpoint has created significant challenges to the field of and strategic management but also generated opportunities businesses distinguish themselves positively in eyes stakeholders. The Danfoss Group, Denmark, one such business, now at an advanced stage CSR development focusing both on Products & Processes Employee Relations. been a gradual progression influenced by environmental labor market...
AbstractA number of factors are critical to the implementation measures identified through Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) processes. This paper addresses challenge from a street level perspective and studies role planners their use discretion in SEA process: which way might hinder or facilitate SEA? Which coping mechanisms discretions deliberately unconsciously developed used by planners? The reviews literature on bureaucracy (SLB) order identify both influencing behaviour...
