Digital Twins for Smart Metabolic Circular Cities

Spark a new era of urban sustainability with Digital Twins for Smart Metabolic Circular Cities, a groundbreaking work by Simon Elias Bibri, Tan Yigitcanlar and Jeffrey Huang. This essential guide merges cutting-edge digital twin technology with urban metabolism and circular economy thinking to help planners, policymakers and technologists reimagine resilient, resource-efficient cities.

Drawing on global case studies and rigorous research, the book explains how digital twins—integrated models that mirror real-world city systems—can optimize energy, water, waste and mobility flows. Readers will discover practical frameworks for designing metabolic circular cities, learn how IoT, GIS and AI enable dynamic simulations, and explore policy strategies to scale sustainable interventions across urban regions in Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America, the Middle East and beyond.

Written for professionals and academics alike, this title offers clear, actionable insights: step-by-step modeling approaches, metrics for circularity and resilience, and guidance on stakeholder engagement and governance. Whether you’re an urban planner, sustainability officer, architect or researcher, you’ll gain tools to reduce carbon footprints, close material loops and transform city services using data-driven decision-making.

With its blend of theory and practice, Digital Twins for Smart Metabolic Circular Cities is a timely roadmap for cities facing rapid urbanization and environmental pressure.
