Environmental principles applicable to supply chains design and operation

In this paper we deal with the problem of identifying environmental principles for the design and operation of supply chains. The operations that are included in supply chains are briefly described along with the approaches that are applied in order to improve their environmental performance. A background of environmental principles for achieving eco-efficiency and building of environmentally friendly organizational systems is presented and emphasis is put on the application of such principles “from cradle to grave”. Then, environmental principles applicable to particular objects of logistics networks planning are identified and commented upon. In addition, selective case studies from the literature, which show the applicability of the formulated principles and their relevance to practice, are discussed. The paper concludes with some remarks regarding the benefits for companies and societies, in general, that occur as a result of the application of the formulated principles.     

利用底栖动物评价图们江污染的研究

作者于1977年8月至1979年8月在图们江上中游的9个采样点上,主要使用人工基质采样器采集底栖无脊椎动物。结果证明图们江底栖动物比较丰富,出现的主要种类属于襀翅目、蜉蝣目的稚虫,毛翅目幼虫,摇蚊科幼虫和水栖寡毛类。其中崇善江段种类多,表现出明显的多样性。根据三年来所收集到的资料,计算了Trent生物指数,Chandler记分制以及Shannon多样性指数,并对图们江的污染状况作出生物学评价,上游地段属于清洁水到中污染;中游地段在污染源以下至图们站属于重污染;自河东站开始,水质又明显好转,属于轻污染。     

Symmetriestrukturen der Physik

The fundamental concepts underlying the application of symmetry to physics are discussed. The exposition employs objects from the geometry of two and three dimensions instead of the algebraic formalism.
