The extremely rapid evolution of portable technologies and children's receptiveness to constantly accessing the latest information creates the conditions for a number of new developments in most areas of activity. Moreover, their attraction to real-time visualisation of various events and competitions projects a certain level of perception and imitation of certain behaviours. Therefore, special attention should be paid to them from the earliest stages, i.e., from the time they are selected to play various sports. Also, the complementarity of some sports must be taken into account when it is desired to obtain positive results.
Age group adaptation and the investigation of some of the parameters relevant to different age groups have generated values that can support positive outcomes in the long term and thus increase motivation to participate in sport at a competitive level.
The paper is motivated by the need to provide relevant synthetic indicators, on the basis of which decision makers can evaluate and compare, the extent to which the proposed projects fall within the goals of sustainable development - economic efficiency, environmental responsibility, social solidarity, circular economy, production and responsible consumption. The case study, introduced in the paper, refers to the real and optimal thermal energy balance, made for an installation for the preparation of asphalt mixtures. The approached example took into account the perspective of multiplication and modernization of asphalt mixture preparation stations. Based on the measurements, performed “on site” and the calculations performed, the values of some indicators referring to energy performance, economic efficiency and environmental impact were obtained. The obtained indicators were aggregated in a global indicator, useful for administrative decision makers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
