Multi-objective Optimization of Road Design Alternatives with an Application of the Moora Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multi-objective analysis is a popular tool in many economic, managerial, constructional, etc. problems. The objective of this research is to develop and implement a methodology for multi-objective optimization of multi-alternative decisions in road construction. After a rough overview of multi-objective decision support for assessment of road design alternatives multi-objective optimization with discrete alternatives: MOORA (Multi-Objective Optimization on basis of Ratio Analysis) was selected. This method goes for a matrix of responses of alternatives on objectives, on which ratios are applied. This methodology is applicable to the problems with large numbers of scenarios and objectives. A case study demonstrates the concept of multi-objective optimization of road design alternatives and the best road design alternative is determined

The MOORA method and its application to privatization in a transition economy
Abstract: A new method is proposed for multi-objective optimization with discrete alternatives: MOORA (Multi-Objective Optimization on the basis of Ratio Analysis). This method refers to a matrix of responses of alternatives to objectives, to which ratios are applied. A well established other method for multi-objective optimization is used for comparison, namely the reference point method. Late...
متن کاملThe multi-objective decision making methods based on MULTIMOORA and MOOSRA for the laptop selection problem
A decision making process requires the values of conflicting objectives for alternatives and the selection of the best alternative according to the needs of decision makers. Multi-objective optimization methods may provide solution for this selection. In this paper it is aimed to present the laptop selection problem based on MOORA plus full multiplicative form (MULTIMOORA) and multi-objective o...

متن کاملSolving Critical Path Problem in Project Network by a New Enhanced Multi-objective Optimization of Simple Ratio Analysis Approach with Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets
Decision making is an important issue in business and project management that assists finding the optimal alternative from a number of feasible alternatives. Decision making requires adequate consideration of uncertainty in projects. In this paper, in order to address uncertainty of project environments, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FSs) are used. In other words, the rating of each alternativ...
