This book gathers selected papers from the 16th UK Heat Transfer Conference (UKHTC2019), which is organised every two years under the aegis of the UK National Heat Transfer Committee. It is the premier forum in the UK for the local and international heat transfer community to meet, disseminate ongoing work, and discuss the latest advances in the heat transfer field. Given the range of topics discussed, these proceedings offer a valuable asset for engineering researchers and postgraduate students alike.
What is the status of university entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA)? How could they be strengthened so that students, academic staff and relevant stakeholders that are part of the ecosystems can best produce better quality ventures — i.e. that can employ more people or make venture founders more employable?This book provides a current review of the state of teaching entrepreneurship and its impact on SSA and illuminates different ways universities are strengthening their university entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems. Different approaches in the book fall into four thematic sections namely: 1) the exploitation of digital infrastructure to design a...
This book brings together a wealth of international case studies to examine transformational entrepreneurship and its multifaceted applications across different sectors, including the arts, business, engineering, government, healthcare, and nonprofits. Contributors illustrate how this distinct form of entrepreneurship can adapt to unpredictable changes, balancing social and economic impact to promote stability and growth.
This book presents hard facts, drawn from extensive research, to highlight our unsustainable consumption of the Earth’s resources and the limitations of the UK’s current management of waste and recycling. Setting out a bleak picture of a world in which we are literally consuming our planet, the book explores the psychological, economic and capitalist drivers behind this behaviour. Controversially, the book examines the drawbacks of the current approach adopted by many local authorities on the kerbside collection of recyclable materials, as well as the UK governments’ strategic approaches to household recycling, including the lack of UK- wide infrastructures for packaging reuse, and for...
This book explores the circular economy, its context, methodology, and commercial strategies, with a focus on waste minimization, recycling, green marketing, and sustainable business practices to facilitate resource recovery. It considers IR 4.0 and 5.0 to show how smart technology innovation extends circular economy through industrial organizational sustainability and investigates circular economy technology innovation in multiple scenarios to exploit product re-usability and technological innovation in Asian, European, and Australian contexts. It discusses novel digital technologies such as blockchain, additive manufacturing, AI, ML, and IoT for global supply chain tracking. This book is valuable for instructors and students in business, environmental studies, supply chain management, product re-manufacturing, and marketing programs seeking cutting-edge Circular Economy and Technological Innovation trends.
Encyclopedia of Renewable and Sustainable Materials, Five Volume Set provides a comprehensive overview, covering research and development on all aspects of renewable, recyclable and sustainable materials. The use of renewable and sustainable materials in building construction, the automotive sector, energy, textiles and others can create markets for agricultural products and additional revenue streams for farmers, as well as significantly reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, manufacturing energy requirements, manufacturing costs and waste. This book provides researchers, students and professionals in materials science and engineering with tactics and information as they face increasingly c...
