Investigating the selection of corresponding support methods for tunnel lining structures with different burial depths under landslide loads has strong practical significance. This paper analyzes influence anti-slide piles on tunnels at through scaling experiments combined numerical simulation methods. The conclusions this study are as follows: Under same pile cross-sectional conditions, when is a shallower depth (above slip surface), due to load, significant bias stress phenomenon occurs in lining. When buried greater (below impact shape and load diminishes. ratio gradually approaches 1. h-type exhibit best performance, followed by square piles, circular demonstrating relatively poorer performance. However, also have highest cost, whereas most cost-effective. An analysis based value engineering theory indicates that positioned above surface, or anti-slip offer cost-effective support. depth, represent solution. holds certain reference significance within systems.

Integrating ecosystem services and life cycle assessment is gaining increasing attention for the analysis of environmental costs benefits associated with human activities covering multiple geographical scales stages. Such integration particularly relevant evaluating sustainability nature-based solutions. However, merging these methods introduces additional uncertainties. This paper a novel protocol to assess uncertainties in combined services-life assessment, focusing on accounting, inventory foreground systems, impact characterisation factors. Applied solution case study compared no-action energy-intensive scenarios, were analysed using multi-method global sensitivity analysis. The robustness results was assessed through convergence plots statistical tests. Findings reveal significant uncertainties, especially factors, extent varying by category. Uncertainties inventory, land use solutions scenario, are also notable. Compared these, indicators (uncertainty arising from input variability accounting) relatively lower. underscores critical role uncertainty enhancing reliability integrated assessments solutions, providing framework identify quantify key thereby supporting more informed decision-making.

Calculating the carbon footprint (CF) holds paramount importance in today’s world as it provides a tangible measure of our impact on environment. In corporate realm, businesses armed with CF data can optimize operations, reduce waste, and adopt greener technologies, leading to both environmental economic benefits. this study, emissions—a significant global issue—are investigated through lens ISO 14067-ISO Product Based Carbon Footprint standard, focusing operations mold company. The primary innovation lies meticulously tracing every stage plastic bottle blow production, most prevalent product industry, from its raw material input final form factory. Subsequently, detailed calculations analysis are conducted quantify associated process calculated for one ton PBBM produced by Petka Mold Industry is presented. This study fills critical gap literature providing holistic understanding (PBBM) thereby offering valuable insights managing emissions promoting sustainability within industry. By integrating life cycle thinking into industrial practices, greener, more sustainable future be paved, mitigating ecological PBBM.
