With increasing global trade and frequent occurrence of disruptive events, the resilience of port clusters has emerged as a critical area of concern. However, studies that focus on the resilience of port clusters considering their complex network structure and operational dynamics remain limited. This study proposes a novel model to assess port clu...

The integration of Blockchain Technology (BT) with Digital Twins (DTs) is becoming increasingly recognized as an effective strategy to enhance trust, interoperability, and data privacy in virtual spaces such as the metaverse. Although there is a significant body of research at the intersection of BT and DTs, a thorough review of the field has not y...

Governments worldwide have promulgated greenness-based electric vehicle subsidy (GEVS) policies to encourage electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers to develop products with higher greenness (i.e., energy saving and emission reduction performance). Normally a GEVS policy would set a subsidy threshold to ensure that only EVs whose greenness meets the su...

On-site sorting of construction waste has been perceived as an effective measure for promoting sustainable construction. Previous studies have identified factors influencing the implementation of such construction waste sorting activities on-site. Most of them, however, focused on examining the factors from a single standpoint, disregarding the int...

In the process of coping with climate change and sustainable development, it is necessary for container terminals to coordinate the relationship between the long-term demand for low carbon and the short-term demand for resilience. However, low carbon or resilience performance of container terminals only has been separately investigated. Under such...

The popularity of the circular economy attracts more attention to balance environmental and economic impacts. Many supply chain remanufacturing firms have started to use the cash flow to invest in cost-reduction technologies to increase profits. However, the uncertainty of cash flow significantly affects the technology investment effectiveness, and...

Illegal dumping behavior widely exists in the construction industry and is difficult to manage. What factors and how they influence the illegal dumping behavior of construction and demolition waste remains to be clarified. Specifically, this study employs an ISM-DEMATEL approach to investigate the critical factors that influence the illegal dumping...

In a duopoly market, a superior manufacturer owns more efficient energy-saving technology in production than the inferior manufacturer. To improve the efficiency of energy-saving technology, technical cooperation is a critical option for the inferior manufacturer. However, unaffordable cooperation fees are generally regarded as one of the most sign...

To reduce carbon emissions in the electric vehicle (EV) market, the Chinese government has issued a subsidy scheme involving a subsidy threshold that is quite different from the fixed subsidy. This study aims to investigate competing EV manufacturers’ decisions on carbon-reduction (CR) technology investment under the subsidy threshold. We construct...

Remanufacturing has long been viewed as a green strategy to increase profit, and hence its advancement has been supported by governments around the world. In this paper, two competing manufacturers have the same opportunity to establish the remanufacturing capability, and the government can subsidize one manufacturer’s fixed cost of remanufacturing...

Implementing construction and demolition waste (C&D waste) recycling is identified as significant for waste minimization and natural resources conservation. However, previous studies have not distinguished two typical waste recycling market scenarios (i.e., being shortage or glut of C&D waste recycling processing capacity) when investigating waste...

Although a plethora of research has been conducted to investigate the economic performance of construction waste (CW) management, the vast majority of studies have concentrated on the economic feasibility of CW recycling, while ignoring the economic performance of CW reduction strategies and measures. Moreover, previous studies mostly focused on on...

This study aims to investigate the recycler's profits and associated environmental impacts of construction and demolition waste (CDW) recycling under two waste treatment capacity expansion strategies, which primarily consider the mismatch between demand and supply in CDW recycling market. Through developing and comparing non-linear programming mode...
