International Journal of Design and Nature and Ecodynamics

Aims & Scope

IJDNE acts as a channel of communication for researchers from around the world working on a variety of studies involving nature and its significance to modern scientific thought and design.

These studies have demonstrated the rich diversity of the natural world.

Ecodynamics in particular aims to relate ecosystems to evolutionary thermodynamics in order to arrive at satisfactory solutions for sustainable development.

The IJDNE also opens new avenues for understanding the relationship between arts and sciences.

Papers on the following topics, in accordance with the aims and objectives of the journal, are welcome: -Design in nature- Nature and architectural design- Thermodynamics in nature- Evolutionary thermodynamics- Eco-informatics- Natural materials in engineering- Mechanics in nature- Dynamic modelling and ecosystems- Indicators- Biosciences- Natural resources management- Environmental assessment and risk- Assessment and management of Biodiversity- Epistemology- Energy conservation and generation- Solutions from nature- Sustainability studies- Social and political sciences- Architecture and the built environment- Economics- Arts and aesthetics- Philosophy and related sciences - Constructal theory
