A Decision‐Making Model for Implementing Green Technology in Sustainable Building Projects

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Green technology (GT) adoption is pivotal for reconciling environmental stewardship with economic viability in the built environment, particularly in resource‐constrained emerging economies. However, empirical evidence on how specific GT drivers actively mitigate adoption barriers remains scarce.

The tensile test and lattice model simulation on recycled concrete

open access: yes工程科学与技术, 2010
:The mechanical parameters of each phase of recycled concrete such as old hardened mortar, the new hardened mortar, interfacial transition zone (ITZ) were obtained by axial tension tests, and the failure mechanism of recycled concrete under axial tensile

Empowering Circular Startups: Unveiling the Blueprint for Circular Business Models

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular startups are increasingly recognized as key drivers in the transition toward a circular economy. Yet the business models (BMs) through which these startups operationalize circularity remain poorly understood, limiting the ability of entrepreneurial ecosystem actors to offer effective support.
