“…The value of the coupling coordination degree is always between 0 and 1. When C is closer to 0, there will be a greater gap between the two subsystems, while a higher C value represents a higher coupling degree [85]. The coordination status can be divided into four types, namely low coupling (0 < C ≤ 0.3, meaning the two subsystems have a minimal correlation), antagonism stage (0.3 < C ≤ 0.5, meaning the two subsystems compete with each other), running-in stage (0.5 < C ≤ 0.8, meaning the coupling of the two systems is benign), and highly coupling stage (0.8 < C < 1, meaning that the two systems have a strong correlation) [86].…”

The implementation of the Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei coordinated development strategy has seriously increased the influence of land use and urban traffic. Thus, understanding the coordination between urban land and transportation systems is important for the efficient and sustainable development of cities, especially in this rapidly urbanizing era. Urban–industrial land and highway networks are, respectively, primary types of urban land and transportation systems, and have significant impacts on social and economic development. However, limited studies have been conducted to examine the relationships between urban–industrial land and highway networks. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the coupling coordination relationship between urban–industrial land use efficiency, and the accessibility of the highway networks of cities. Specifically, in the context of the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) urban agglomeration, the coupling coordination between urban-industrial land use efficiency and accessibility of the highway traffic network was empirically analyzed. The results show that: (i) The differences in urban-industrial land use efficiency in the BTH region are significant. Capital cities in the BTH urban agglomeration have higher economic, social, and comprehensive efficiency, while in industrial cities, the use of urban–industrial land should prioritize ecological and environmental issues. (ii) Because of its good geographical location Beijing has the best accessibility, with an accessibility index of 1.416, while Qinhuangdao had the lowest accessibility index of 0.039. (iii) In most BTH cities, the urban-industrial comprehensive land use level has fallen behind the highway network development level. The results of this study can provide references for the coordinated development of the BTH urban agglomeration.

“…At the same time, coordination is the process of benign interaction and development between systems or among the elements within the system, while coordination degree is a quantitative index to measure the coordination between systems. Combining the concepts of coupling and coordination, a lot of researchers have adopted coupling coordination degree model (CCDM) to measure different systems' relationships, such as urbanization and the eco-environment system [45][46][47][48], urbanization and the atmospheric environment system [26,49], industrial structure and the eco-environment system [4], socio-economy and the energy environment [50,51], the economy-resource-environment system [52], etc. However, few studies have explored the coupling and coordination relationship between the industrial structure system and atmospheric environment system.…”

Under the dual pressure of industrial structure upgrade and atmospheric environment improvement, China, in a transition period, is facing the challenge of coordinating the relationship between the industry and the environment system to promote the construction of a beautiful China. Based on system theory and coupling coordination model, the interaction analysis framework between industrial structure (IS) and atmospheric environment (AE) was constructed. An integrated system with 24 indicators was established by the pressure-state-response (PSR) model of IS and level-quality-innovation (LQI) model of AE. Then, we analyzed trends observed in coupling coordination degree (CCD) and dynamic coupling coordination degree (DCCD) for 11 cities in Zhejiang Province, China, using statistical panel data collected from 2006 to 2017. Conclusions were as follows: (1) the 11 cities' comprehensive level of the IS system shows a trend of stable increase, yet the comprehensive level of AE demonstrated a trend of fluctuation and transition. There are significant spatial variations among cities; (2) The CCD analysis results found that Hangzhou, Ningbo, and Wenzhou take the lead in realizing the transformation from barely coordinated development to superior coordinated pattern, while other cities were still in the stage of barely coordinated development; (3) the DCCD phase of 11 cities can be roughly divided into three types: upgraded-utmost development type (only Hangzhou), stable-harmonious development type (Wenzhou, Lishui, and Zhoushan) and transitional-harmonious development type (the remaining seven cities). This means, for most cities, the contradiction between the transformation process of IS and the AE has become increasingly prominent and intensified. Finally, three necessary and sustainable strategies were proposed to environmental policy makers.

“…A large number of sustainable construction studies have focused on sustainable building [22][23][24], which is mainly concerned with the planning and design phase of construction. Sustainable building refers to architecture designed according to a sustainable development concept that aims to reduce energy consumption and pollution, improve resource conservation, and protect the environment.…”

Sustainable development has been commonly identified as a vital target in the construction industry. Studies have examined different management strategies and procedures to promote resource utilization efficiency, while the human factors in sustainable construction have received far less attention. This paper investigates the influence of Project Citizenship Behavior (PCB) on project performance in the sustainable construction context. After introducing the concept of “relationship sustainability,” a moderating model is established. Data are collected from 152 experienced construction project managers in China. The results show positive relationships between most dimensions of Project Citizenship Behavior and construction sustainability performance, in spite of the negative effect of taking charge on relationship sustainability. Moreover, the degree of complexity of projects acts as a moderator in the relationship between Project Citizenship Behavior and construction sustainability performance. This paper endeavors to enrich the knowledge of sustainable construction by regarding human behavioral factors as important resources and explaining their effect on project sustainability, thus shedding light on the theory of sustainable construction by extending it to the micro-level analysis, as well as offering guidelines about how to raise the sustainability level of construction projects.
