Abstract

A mathematical model for sustainable optimization is presented. The sustainability parameters are linked to end-of-life considerations in product design and development. The sustainability considerations such as total embodied energy, eco-materials selection, CO2 emission, cost savings due to recycling and reuse including the water savings are presented for helical compression springs used in mattresses.
