A method for computing the edge-Hosoya polynomial with application to phenylenes
Martin Knor, Niko Tratnik, 2023, original scientific article

Abstract: The edge-Hosoya polynomial of a graph is the edge version of the famous Hosoya polynomial. Therefore, the edge-Hosoya polynomial counts the number of (unordered) pairs of edges at distance $k \ge 0$ in a given graph. It is well known that this polynomial is closely related to the edge-Wiener index and the edge-hyper-Wiener index. As the main result of this paper, we greatly generalize an earlier result by providing a method for calculating the edge-Hosoya polynomial of a graph $G$ which is obtained by identifying two edges of connected bipartite graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$. To show how the main theorem can be used, we apply it to phenylene chains. In particular, we present the recurrence relations and a linear time algorithm for calculating the edge-Hosoya polynomial of any phenylene chain. As a consequence, closed formula for the edge-Hosoya polynomial of linear phenylene chains is derived.

The challenge of integrating Life Cycle Assessment in the building design process - a systematic literature review of BIM-LCA workflows
Tajda Potrč Obrecht, Martin Röck, Endrit Hoxha, Alexander Passer, 2019, published scientific conference contribution

Abstract: To foster sustainable development in construction sectors, environmental impacts need to be reduced dramatically. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) technique is the most firmly established methodology used to quantify these environmental impacts and, therefore, has been applied with increasing frequency to assess the environmental performance of buildings. To effectively improve a building's environmental performance, an integration of LCA in the design process is required. This can be achieved by coupling LCA with digital design tools, e.g., Building Information Modelling (BIM). To identify the pro and cons of streamlining the integration of LCA and BIM, a comprehensive Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was performed. We identified more than 50 relevant BIM-LCA case studies and analysed the applied BIM-LCA workflows in detail. In most of the studies reviewed, the LCA has been applied in an early design stage. The authors primarily used LCA tools and manual or semi-automatic methods to exchange data between BIM models. In most cases, contemporary BIM-LCA workflows utilized conventional spreadsheets (e.g., Excel worksheets). However, the results of the analysis show that an automated link between LCA and BIM can be achieved if certain challenges are overcome. By automating exchange of information between BIM and LCA tools and improving the reliability of this process, the LCA application can be streamlined in design practice and, hence, the necessary improvements of the environmental performance of buildings can be supported.

BIM and LCA integration : a systematic literature review
Tajda Potrč Obrecht, Martin Röck, Endrit Hoxha, Alexander Passer, 2020, review article

Abstract: To foster sustainable development, the environmental impacts of the construction sector need to be reduced substantially. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is the established methodology for the quantification of environmental impacts, and therefore has been increasingly applied to assess the environmental performance of buildings. By coupling LCAs with digital design tools, e.g., building information modeling (BIM), the identification of environmental hotspots and their mitigation is possible during the design process. The objective of the study is to identify the current integration approaches, and determine the pros and cons of the integration process from different viewpoints, namely, technical, informational, organizational and functional issues. Therefore, a comprehensive systematic literature review (SLR) was performed. We identified 60 relevant BIM-LCA case studies and analyzed the applied BIM-LCA workflows in detail. A total of 16 of the reviewed studies applied LCA during the early design stage. These studies used a manual or semiautomatic data exchange between the BIM models and LCA tools. In most cases, contemporary BIM-LCA workflows utilized conventional spreadsheets (e.g., Excel sheets in 16 cases). However, the analysis shows that an automated link between LCA and BIM can be achieved when overcoming the technical, organizational and informational issues discussed in the paper. This could enable the streamlining of LCA applications in design practice, and thus support the necessary improvements in the environmental performance of buildings.
