An analysis of impacts of downstream infrastructure on environmentally friendly product designs

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project has two long-term objectives: 1. To develop models that address the impacts of downstream infrastructures in recycled end-of-life product operations on a number of important variables, including manufacturers' investment in product design changes, manufacturers' and recyclers' profits, prices that end-users face, and social welfare. 2. To develop models that address the interaction between downstream infrastructures and different product generations associated with product design changes.
