this study provides an alternative approach to decisionmaking and its application in selecting the best attack helicopter. in thisway, principal component analysis (pca) is used to find the weights ofthe criteria after identifying the effective criteria for the evaluation andselection of attack helicopters. these weights, then, applied in theobjective function of goal programming (gp) model. fi...

results fifty seven patients were assigned to receive peg and 52 patients received cfe. after 4weeks of medication, 86.5% of children in cfe group and 77.1% in peg group (rr = 1.121, ci95%:0.939 - 1.338) exited from the criteria of fc. all measurable criteria improved in both groups without any significant difference, except in the frequency of defecation that in cfe group (10.96 ± 5.7) was sig...

The most important issue in multi-objective optimization problems is to determine the Pareto points along the Pareto frontier. If the optimization problem involves multiple conflicting objectives, the results obtained from the Pareto-optimality will have the trade-off solutions that shaping the Pareto frontier. Each of these solutions lies at the boundary of the Pareto frontier, such that the i...

The effective use of pervious concrete in environmental site design requires consistent design procedures integrating the structural and material properties of the pervious concrete pavement with hydrologic performance of the pervious concrete system. Design procedures to size pervious concrete storm-water systems are presented based on criteria for freeze-thaw protection and drawdown reliabili...
