Research Interests

Zhao’s current research in the field of sustainable engineering in the field of sustainable engineering has focused on mathematical modelling and computational approaches, which is capable of providing mitigation strategies to limit environmental burden, as well as promote sustainable development. A significant proportion of my research is interdisciplinary study, whilst using theory of system theory to identify and analyze environmental issues in order for better decision making in the area of low carbon production and consumption, green supply chain management.
