The objective of this article is to develop an empirically based framework for formulating and selecting a vendor in supply chain. This study applies the fuzzy set theory to evaluate the vendor selection decision. Applying Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) in obtaining criteria weights and applied Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Idea Solution (TOPSIS) for obtaining final ranking...

Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarly to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is one of the most commonly used approaches in solving numerous multiple criteria decision making problems. It has been widely used in ranking of multiple alternatives with respect to multiple criteria with the superiority of fuzzy set type-1 and subjective weights. Recently, fuzzy TOPSIS has been merged with interval ...

This study proposes a holistic approach for determining critical attributes in e-learning measurements. There is an abundance of literature pertaining to the e-learning framework, but there is a shortage of literature on how to properly implement the framework in uncertainty with variance and interactive relationships. This paper also considers the nature of fuzziness in human perception and av...

Shaft sinking is one of the main parts in underground mine planning. Shaft has various applications in underground mines e.g. minerals exiting flow, gases entrance or exit way, stope developments for exploitation etc. Considering that this section requires an abundance of expenses, management always following the election is the way that both terms have the technical considerations, economic co...

Ranking competing alternatives in terms of their overall performance with respect to some criterions in fuzzy environment is possible by the use of fuzzy TOPSIS methodology using interval-valued fuzzy-sets concepts. This author presents an effective fuzzy multi-criteria method based upon the fuzzy model and the concepts of positive ideal and negative ideal solution points for prioritizing alter...

Supplier selection is an important strategic decision for construction companies due to long-term project durations and high costs. In the sector, supplier decisions should take several criteria alternatives into account. Along with number of alternative suppliers, choosing best method evaluate suppliers another critical step. this study, we compare effectiveness different multi-criteria decisi...

Purpose: The aim of this study is applying a new method for Industrial robotic system selection. Design/methodology/approach: In this paper, the weights of each criterion are calculated using fuzzy Shannon’s Entropy. After that, fuzzy TOPSIS is utilized to rank the alternatives. After that we compare the result of Fuzzy TOPSIS with Fuzzy VIKOR method. Then we select the best Industrial Robotic ...

The quality of water available to people has deteriorated because the vast increase in global industries. overall reduced due high use fertilizers farms and chemicals sectors such as mining construction. a direct impact on health humans hence it is necessary evaluate drinking water. dependent various substances like pH, ammonia, iron, arsenic etc. present If these parameters are an appropriate ...
