This book presents readers with an integrated modeling approach for analyzing and understanding the interconnection of water,
energy, and food resources and discusses the relationship between resilience and sustainability of the food- energy -water
(FEW) system. Authors provide novel frameworks, models, and algorithms designed to balance the theoretical and applicative
aspects of each chapter. The book covers an integrated modeling approach for FEW systems along with developed methods, codes,
and planning tools for designing interdependent energy, water and food systems. In-depth chapters discuss the impact of renewable
energy resources in FEW systems, sustainable design and operation, net zero energy buildings, and challenges and opportunities
of the FEW nexus in the sustainable development of different countries. This book is useful for graduate students, researchers,
and engineers seeking to understand how sustainable FEW systems contribute to the resilience of these systems and help policy
and design makers allocate and prioritize resources in an integrated manner across the food, energy, and water sectors.
