The paper unfolds the intricate tapestry of sustainable design, weaving in the pivotal role of renewable energy systems and astutely tying it to the eco-conscious blueprint of modern museums. The introduction sheds light on the potent impact of sustainable design in mitigating environmental hurdles and fostering a greener, more sustainable future, with a nuanced nod towards sustainability in museum management and design. Motivated by an aspiration to traverse diverse viewpoints and methodologies in sustainable design, the research stretches across numerous sectors—encompassing construction, architecture, engineering, manufacturing, software development, and notably, museum design, intending to carve out energy-sparing and ecologically mindful solutions. This paper underscores the imperative of astute design practices that optimize structures, such as museums, to maximize the utilization of renewable energy resources like solar arrays, wind turbines, and geothermal systems. It advocates for a burgeoning need to escalate the horizon of sustainable design beyond singular buildings, intertwining standalone energy systems at multiple tiers—from community power grids to expansive urban networks—ensuring a streamlined energy distribution and curbing waste. Wading through the literature review, an exploration of varied sustainable design strategies unfolds, encompassing facets like supply chain management, product safety, architectural design, manufacturing, food packaging, transportation, and pedagogy, with a specific lens on embedding sustainability in museum infrastructure and operations. The culmination of the paper discerns ten cardinal trends in sustainable design, spanning from the integration of renewable energy systems to the infusion of sustainable education and positive psychological interventions in educational institutions, thereby spotlighting the metamorphosing terrain of sustainable design across an array of disciplines.

This research aims to analyze the environmental conditions inside and outside the Statiko Coffee Shop, Wonosobo, Indonesia, with a focus on noise, light intensity, air temperature, and humidity. Measurements were carried out at certain time intervals starting from 15:00 to 23:00. The collected data shows significant variations in each observed parameter. Indoors, noise levels varied, light intensity was recorded, air temperature fluctuated, and humidity ranged from 78.0% to 85.0%. Outdoors wider variations in noise, light intensity, air temperature, and humidity were seen. The results of this research show the importance of good understanding and design regarding ventilation and environmental management to create comfort for visitors in a coffee shop. This information can be used as a basis for designing an effective ventilation system and maintaining good indoor air quality, as well as considering external environmental influences such as noise and light intensity. Further research is needed to provide more specific recommendations for optimizing the environment at the Statiko Coffee Shop, Wonosobo, Indonesia.

This research scrutinizes the seismic threat looming over Istanbul, potentially subject to a substantial earthquake. We analyze six plausible earthquake scenarios, utilizing six ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs), to forge high-resolution seismic hazard maps. These maps reveal not only peak horizontal ground accelerations but also spectral acceleration values across varying temporal frames, integrating the amplification effects of softer sediments. Our approach delineates that Istanbul’s western shoreline faces heightened risk, with median spectral accelerations at 0.3 s approaching 1 g, signifying intense shaking potential. In contrast, the area encompassing the financial district exhibits lower values, around 0.3 g. The granularity of these findings lays bare the seismic vulnerabilities of the region, offering a window into the risks and potential damages facing this bustling metropolis. This enhanced understanding paves the way for strategic urban planning and risk mitigation efforts aimed at safeguarding Istanbul’s populace and infrastructure. This article succinctly condenses our study’s pivotal conclusions, presenting a clarion call for proactive measures to diminish earthquake impacts on this dynamic urban landscape.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of project management and partnership banking. Due to the shortage of investment, Ukraine always needs to plan for finance resource. All over the world the partnership banking is becoming an increasingly common and attractive type of investment in projects. In the conditions of modern Ukraine, the need to restore industrial and infrastructure construction projects one can predict a significant growth in the construction services market and the need of investment. In this study, the ways of possible increasing of investment in construction industry have been discussed based on the use of a logical-structural approach in project management and partnership banking as a source of investment.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of environmental transformational leadership. Due to the dry climate, Iran always needs to plan for water facilities. Among the water facilities, the dam is the most important because of the supply of drinking water, agriculture, hydroelectric energy, etc. The construction of a dam has always been important due to the huge cost involved, and on the other hand, due to the complexities involved in its construction, it is accompanied by risks. In this research, the ways of increasing productivity in construction management and dam construction have been discussed by considering the issue of project control in order to save costs and time and increase the quality of construction.

In today’s competitive market, reducing costs and time is one of the most important issues that has occupied the minds of managers and researchers. With the expansion of industries, almost all businesses need a supply chain management system that is first able to meet the needs of customers and secondly by providing modern solutions to reduce time and cost, have the necessary efficiency to meet the challenges of the logistics industry and the supply chain. This issue is especially important in the field of supply chain management and transportation, because by reducing time and cost, manufacturers and service providers can gain a competitive advantage over competitors. Accordingly, vehicle routing issues are one of the most important issues in this field because it is directly related to the time of service or product delivery and also by optimizing the network, reduces the cost of the entire network. In this research some studies on the issue of sustainability in the transportation network have been discussed, which is a review of previous research in this field.
