This book examines a range of subjects with a specific focus on architectural and technological advancements. Architecture is the constant innovation in designing for high efficiency in the performance of buildings, in terms of planning, construction and energy, while maintaining creativity in its form. Moreover, the field of architecture goes hand in hand with that of technology. Nowadays, engineering technology has to cope with the rapid industrialization and urbanization seen in most countries. Furthermore, creative design and construction practices are challenging tasks to the architects and engineers to meet the ever-growing demands of society. Therefore, this book on "Advances in Engineering Science and Architectural Design" is provided to cover a wide range of topics in architecture, engineering, and technology.

This book introduces a model for the built environment, designed to incorporate sustainability at every level. It emphasizes the integration of environmental, social, and economic factors to create resilient urban spaces. Also, it presents a decision support system that optimizes energy management for sustainability, enabling real-time adjustments and reducing carbon footprints. It discusses innovative strategies for managing water and wastewater in swampland areas, offering insights from UIN Raden Fatah Palembang's adaptation efforts.Also, this book provides a thorough review of bio-based business models, examining their agility and adaptability in fostering sustainable innovations that respond to market and environmental changes. Moreover, the book explores a novel approach to renewable energy, this chapter assesses the feasibility of using vortex bladeless wind turbines for energy generation at airport runways, offering both conceptual and economic analyses. In addition to discuss the creation and role of multi-actor forums in promoting a sustainable blue economy in the Black Sea region, emphasizing collaborative efforts to preserve marine resources.This book investigates the use of halophyte biochar as a sustainable soil amendment for sandy soils, demonstrating its potential to improve soil quality and promote sustainable agriculture. Also, the book aims to assess the sustainability of food-energy-water systems at the household level, advocating for integrated solutions that enhance resource efficiency and sustainability. This book delves into societal perceptions of climate change adaptation, using interaction analysis to better understand public attitudes and their implications for policy and communication strategies. This book presents a case study from Istanbul, offering insights into how local identity can strengthen community resilience and sustainability efforts. Finally the book provides a comprehensive guide to understanding and implementing sustainable practices across various sectors, from energy management and water resources to food systems and environmental education. It emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approaches and innovation agility in addressing global sustainability challenges.
