Navigating towards sustainable development: A system dynamics approach
Traditional fragmented and mechanistic science is unable to cope with issues about sustainability, as these are often related to complex, self-organizing systems. In the paper, sustainable development is seen as an unending process defined neither by fixed goals nor by specific means of achieving them. It is argued that, in order to understand the sources of and the solutions to modern problems...
متن کاملDecoupled systems on trial: Eliminating bottlenecks to improve aquaponic processes
In classical aquaponics (coupled aquaponic systems, 1-loop systems) the production of fish in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and plants in hydroponics are combined in a single loop, entailing systemic compromises on the optimal production parameters (e.g. pH). Recently presented decoupled aquaponics (2-loop systems) have been awarded for eliminating major bottlenecks. In a pilot study,...
متن کاملAquaponic – a Modern Farming System
This paper describes the potential of aquaponic as a poverty eradication tool in Malaysia. Although Malaysia is recognized as a developed country, poverty is still occurring among Malaysian, especially from rural area. Therefore, aquaponic – a modern farming system is being introduced to benefit the low income family. Aquaponic is the term that described the synergistic combination of aquacultu...
متن کاملManagement of the Aquaponic Systems
Aquaponics is the integration of recirculating aquaculture and hydroponics in one production system. Although the production of fish and vegetables is the most visible output of aquaponic units, it is essential to understand that aquaponics is the management of a complete ecosystem that includes three major groups of organisms: fish, plants and bacteria. This document provides recommendations o...
متن کاملA System Dynamics Approach to Healthcare Cost Control
Abstract The purpose of this article is to present a system dynamics (SD) model for studying the interconnections among human being weight, eating habit, exercise, body fat, take-in medication, drugs-uses, and the health problems in general. Due to the fact that all of these factors have direct and indirect impacts on the expenses that insurance company have to pay this author is proposing a ...
