Abstract

This paper presents a summary and review of life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA) methods for the transport sector. The paper provides a comprehensive overview of articles that employ a variety of methods for assessing sustainable development in the transport sector, taking into account the economic, social, and environmental dimensions. In the sustainability assessment of transport, three methods were evaluated: life cycle assessment (LCA), life cycle cost analysis (LCC), and social life cycle assessment (SLCA). An overview of sustainability assessment methods in transport and a review of the indicators used in the life cycle sustainability assessment was conducted. It was found that the selection of indicators within the LCSA for assessing various aspects of sustainable development is dependent on various geographic and policy contexts. An overview of the application of multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) methods to assess LCSA in the transport sector was performed. MCDA methods are used to support decision-making regarding the selection of the most sustainable transport options and allow for the simultaneous consideration of multiple criteria, enabling a more sustainable assessment of different transport options. MCDA methods help to rank alternative transportation fuels and help decision-makers consider indicators encompassing economic, environmental and social aspects.

考虑生命周期概念的运输部门可持续性评估方法--综述

本文总结并回顾了运输行业的生命周期可持续性评估（LCSA）方法。本文全面综述了采用各种方法评估交通运输业可持续发展的文章，同时考虑了经济、社会和环境层面。在交通运输的可持续性评估中，评估了三种方法：生命周期评估（LCA）、生命周期成本分析（LCC）和社会生命周期评估（SLCA）。对运输可持续性评估方法进行了概述，并对生命周期可持续性评估中使用的指标进行了审查。研究发现，在生命周期可持续性评估中选择用于评估可持续发展各方面的指标取决于不同的地理和政策背景。对应用多标准决策分析（MCDA）方法评估运输部门的生命周期可持续性评估进行了概述。MCDA 方法用于支持有关选择最可持续交通方案的决策，并允许同时考虑多个标准，从而能够对不同的交通方案进行更可持续的评估。MCDA 方法有助于对替代运输燃料进行排序，并帮助决策者考虑包括经济、环境和社会方面的指标。
