John Wileyc20081 online resource (xi, 332 p. )ill., map ;Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-470-13062-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.The evolution of design process -- First principles -- Transitions -- Place and time -- Sustainable design and social responsibility -- The sustainability imperative -- The carbon quandary: essential and detrimental -- We have met the future and it is green."From thermodynamics to fluid dynamics to computational chemistry, this book sets forth the scientific principles underlying the need for sustainable design, explaining not just the "hows" of sustainable design and green engineering, but also the "whys." Moreover, it provides readers with the scientific principles needed to guide their own sustainable design decisions. Throughout the book, the authors draw from their experience in architecture, civil engineering, environmental engineering, planning, and public policy in order to build an understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of sustainable design."--Jacket.BuildingsPerformanceBuildingsEnergy conservationEnvironmental engineeringArchitectureDecision makingBuildingsPerformanceBuildingsEnergy conservationEnvironmental engineeringDecision makingArchitectureCivil & Environmental EngineeringHILCCEngineering & Applied SciencesHILCCCivil EngineeringHILCCBuildingsPerformance.BuildingsEnergy conservation.Environmental engineering.ArchitectureDecision making.BuildingsPerformanceBuildingsEnergy conservationEnvironmental engineeringDecision making.ArchitectureCivil & Environmental EngineeringEngineering & Applied SciencesCivil Engineering720/.47Vallero Daniel A312864Brasier Chris1762820DLCDLCBTCTABAKERUKMYDXCPC#PBWXDLCBOOK9910877072103321Sustainable design4202958UNINAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
