QSDedu: Education Modules for Quantitative Sustainable Design

Launching Binder

Method 1 (preferred)

Directly click the ABOVE (under the main header) to launch binder in your browser. This is the PREFERRED method and should be able to build the Binder environment fairly quickly (within a minute). But if this method fails, try the alternative one below, which might take a few to tens of minutes and you might need to refresh the page if it appears to be stuck at the very last step (i.e., when the progress bar goes to the end but nothing happens).

Method 2

If it takes a long time (or it times out), go to https://mybinder.org, enter the information as below:

• GitHub: https://github.com/QSD-Group/QSDedu
• Git ref: main

and click the launch button.

What is QSDedu?

QSDedu contains course modules for quantitative sustainable design (QSD), including the introduction of QSD methodology [1] and separate modules on using the packages developed by the Quantitative Sustainable Design Group for QSD of different engineered systems.

All tutorials are written using Jupyter Notebook, you can run your own Jupyter environment, or you can click the launch binder badge on the top to launch the environment in your browser.

Authors and Contributing

Development of QSDedu is led by Yalin Li with contributions from the Quantitative Sustainable Design Group.
