An Integrated Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model for Evaluating Wind Farm Performance

An AHP-Delphi Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model with Application to Environmental Decision-Making

An integrated model of fuzzy multi-criteria decision making and stochastic programming for the evaluating and ranking of advanced manufacturing technologies

Investment appraisal in advanced manufacturing technologies (AMTs) has been receiving considerable attention over the past three decades. As stated in numerous studies, traditional engineering economic methods cannot adequately justify investments in AMTs. Thus, beside these methods, some other solutions have been proposed in this field. The methods applied in the evaluation of AMTs can be clas...

A COPRAS-F base multi-criteria group decision making approach for site selection of wind farm

Article history: Received July 28, 2012 Accepted November 27, 2012 Available online December 1 2012 Today global warming is on the rise and the natural resources are getting consumed at a faster rate. Power consumption has increased many folds to cater the human need. Thus renewable energy resources are the only option available at this juncture. Wind energy is one of the renewable energy. Loca...

A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach with Interval Numbers for Evaluating Project Risk Responses

The risk response development is one of the main phases in the project risk management that has major impacts on a large-scale project’s success. Since projects are unique, and risks are dynamic through the life of the projects, it is necessary to formulate responses of the important risks. Conventional approaches tend to be less effective in dealing with the imprecise of the risk response deve...

Determining appropriate weight for criteria in multi criteria group decision making problems using an Lp model and similarity measure

Decision matrix in group decision making problems depends on a lot of criteria. It is essential to know the necessity ofweight or coefficient of each criterion. Accurate and precise selection of weight will help to achieve the intended goal.The aim of this article is to introduce a linear programming model for recognizing the importance of each criterion inmulti criteria group decision making w...
