Methodology for automated consideration of the life cycle assessment as an optimisation parameter in the design process
Masterthesis
The aim of this work is to enable the automated consideration of life cycle assessment in the optimisation of design process. For this purpose, the optimisation software OptiSLang is connected to the life cycle assessment software Granta MI Sustainability via a Python interface. The integrated approach is intended to show how product development can be supported by providing development engineers with a sound basis for decision-making. The methodology will be demonstrated and evaluated using an example model.
Prerequisites
Basic programming skills are an advantage, as well as a general interest in data-driven sustainability and sustainability assessment methods (CO2 footprint, LCA, etc.).
Comment
The start of work would be possible immediately, but can also be flexibly adapted.
