This research presents the findings of a study on the perceptions of sustainable development among companies in Dubai and Istanbul. It starts by providing an overview of the definitions, objectives, benefits, and requirements of sustainability, also highlighting some examples of best practices in this area. Then presents the results of a questionnaire survey that has been conducted to gather the views of companies on sustainable development and compare them. The main point of this research is to acknowledge the perspectives of companies in Dubai and Istanbul on sustainable development. This study aims to identify the sustainable development challenges that companies are currently facing and may face in the future, from an organizational perspective. It also aims to examine how companies can address these challenges in a way that benefits both their own operations and the larger society by contributing to sustainable development. The focus of the research is on understanding how companies can address these challenges from within their own organizational structures and practices. The survey results reveal similarities and differences in sustainability practices between Istanbul and Dubai. Istanbul-based companies prioritize customer-focused sustainability, while Dubai-based companies excel in sustainable operations. Istanbul ranked first in ethics and safety, while Dubai focused more on environmental impact. Both cities prioritize a safe work environment, but Istanbul focuses on employee engagement, while Dubai prioritizes energy efficiency and ethical sourcing. Common barriers include a lack of awareness, difficulty finding sustainable suppliers, and regulatory restrictions. Dubai companies perceive the higher implementation of sustainable strategies and measurable results. Regular evaluation, sharing of best practices, and alignment of sustainability priorities can drive improvements. Companies need to consider their unique context and challenges to effectively integrate sustainability into their business strategies, and overcome barriers. Collaboration, education, and stakeholder engagement are crucial for fostering a more sustainable future in both Istanbul and Dubai.

The Simineh River is heavily reliant on water resources for agricultural aims in the Lake Urmia. However, the hydrological system of the Simineh basin is highly susceptible to the impacts of climate change scenarios, primarily due to the presence of diverse topographical features, limited availability of data, and the complex nature of the local climate. This study aimed to simulate the monthly discharge of the Simineh River using the SWAT and assess the effects of climate change on the monthly discharge. Future climate scenarios for the years 2011-2030 were generated using the HadCM3 weather models under the A2, B1, and A1B scenarios. After evaluating the performance of the LARS-WG model in producing precipitation, minimum and maximum temperatures for the Simineh River watershed, the output of the HadCM3 under the A1B, B1, and A2 scenarios reduced, and the desired meteorological parameters predicted. These predicted values used as inputs for the SWAT model. In this study, assuming no change in land use, the focus was solely on the impact of climate change scenarios. However, appropriate measures can be taken to save the Simineh River's water consumption by optimizing irrigation efficiency through innovative methods. This is crucial because the results indicate that a total reduction of up to 25% in discharge in the Lake Urmia basin under climate change leads to a significant decrease in the annual average inflow to the lake from 570 million cubic meters to 394, 398, and 440 million cubic meters under the A2, B1, and A1B scenarios, respectively. The Simineh River supplies 11% of the water in Lake Urmia, and taking necessary measures to conserve its water resources is essential.

In the absence of proper humidity and temperature conditions, undried fresh foods will experience physiological and biological deterioration, resulting in mass loss and the development of mold. Thanks to this rationale, humanity has endeavored to keep food products from deteriorating. This can be observed through the use of cold rooms constructed by the Ancient Romans using clay and the cooling chambers known as "Yakhchāl" developed by the Persians. The advancement of refrigeration technology has persisted since the era of ancient civilizations. The advent of refrigeration cycles has significantly streamlined the implementation of containment technology. The presence of these systems in residential settings can be attributed to the development of the vapor compression refrigeration cycle and the compact nature of this technology, which enables convenient freezing or cooling of products for storage purposes. Vapor compression refrigeration cycles are still widely employed in various applications, such as office and automotive air conditioning systems, refrigerators, and industrial cold rooms. This study aims to develop an industrial cold room design tailored explicitly for storing and transporting apples, a perishable agricultural commodity. The primary objective is to ensure that the apples are maintained in optimal humidity and temperature conditions, thereby preventing any degradation, even when handling large quantities in Ankara.

Due to the fact that the population density in Turkey is concentrated in the Marmara region, many businesses are positioning their facilities in this region. For this reason, logistics companies, also called 3PL, serving these businesses are located in the same region. Logistics companies determine various transportation strategies according to the shipment volumes of the customers they serve. The main objectives of these strategies are based on cost minimization, productivity increase and improvement of customer service levels. In this publication, a decision tree was used to determine the transportation strategy of a customer of the logistics company whose case study was conducted. The costs of alternative options, including the current transportation option, were calculated and the transportation option with the lowest cost was preferred. In the study, real data was used and a case study was carried out in a logistics company serving in our country. The reason why the decision tree method is preferred is that it is easy to implement and can answer many basic logistics problems.

Vehicle technology with an internal combustion engine emerged at the end of the 19th century. Although it is not very well known, the first prototype studies of the electric vehicle coincide with the same period. Today, factors such as global warming, pollution and the decrease in fossil fuel reserves accelerate the transition to electric vehicle technology. In this context, a new system structure is needed for electrically driven systems differently from traditional vehicle structures. In this study, a chassis design for an electric vehicle is carried out. While designing, the part where the battery pack will be placed has been modeled and simulated with the help of the ANSYS program to protect the battery and electronic components that are particularly sensitive to impacts. In order to be successful in abuse tests such as Crush and Crash tests specified in the regulations and standards, the material selection and design should be done correctly. In this context, the right materials are determined as a result of the researches and 3D simulations are made and crash tests are carried out in the simulation environment. As a result, tube type chassis was chosen among many chassis models and 7079 aluminum alloy was found suitable as raw material. According to the simulation results, it is seen that the design and the selected alloy are suitable.

Modern thermal comfort theories recommend that a restricted temperature difference be evenly maintained throughout all architectural styles, regions, and people. This strategy treats structure inhabitants for heating purposes, resulting in thermal comfort criteria that necessitate power climate management measures. This frequently results in a high need for air conditioning. Initial investigation and new Technology, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Climate Control) advanced facilities are contesting conventional assumptions of thermal comfort criteria on the basis that they ignore main social and environmental comfort elements. In this paper the researcher took the effect of the modification in the design on the thermal comfort by several engineering solutions for reducing the total main radiant temperature (TMRT(, Potential air temperature (PAT), and the developing of the relative humidity (RH) with the wind speed (WS) Which are playing a significant role on improving the urban heat island (UHI) The research mainly aims to analyze the effect of urban green spaces on the urban heat island as a common strategy for improving the thermal comfort.

Improvement of existing forest roads for easier access to mineral resources and operation is one of the national needs and a factor of economic and tourism development in the forest areas on the southern Coast of the Khazar Lake and in the Highlands of the northern provinces of Iran. Forest resource management can only be sustainable through a well-organized road network designed with optimal spatial planning and minimum environmental impacts. Improving the quality of forest roads leads to reducing mining and transport costs, and improving the livelihoods of the local people However, unscrupulous construction and improper maintenance could have adverse and irreparable effects. Environmental destruction should be minimized in the design and construction of forest roads and engineering principles should not be neglected in this regard. In the long run, Improved Road construction will have positive environmental impacts because road damage due to Erosion and Drift brings environmental damage in addition to economic and social injuries. One of the main factors in the stability and durability of roads is extensive drainage and stabilization of the road shell in inaccessible forest and mountain areas. This article examines environmental and engineering problems, sustainability, and impacts of drainage and stability in the construction and improvement of forest roads based on the access road to the Goliran coal mine in the highlands of Babol county in Mazandaran province, Iran.
