The purpose of this study is to develop and assess an objective research model to weigh the factors that affect intention of cross-buying insurance in banks. The Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was conduct firstly for the shortlist selection of factors of cross-buying intention. Then, the factors’ weights of cross-buying intention is also used as the eval...

various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were discussed based on their limitations and production capacities, and the criteria such as the quality and size of coke production, amount of coke crumb, amount of investment, amount of operational costs, labor force and mechanization. in this work, the rankings of various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were carried...

Abstract In this article, the selection of weight factor (WF) is improved using Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) based cost function (CF) optimization predictive control in surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive under different conditions. Basically, empirical approach used WF instinctive and consumes excess time. TOPSIS chooses a ...

Prior to the implementation of CO2 injection EOR projects, the screening evaluation of candidate reservoirs will promote the economic benefits of CO2 injection. Currently, a uniform screening method for CO2 miscible flooding does not exist. Based on more than 112 successfully implemented CO2 miscible flooding reservoirs, which was referred in 2010 Worldwide EOR Survey, and CO2 miscible flooding...

Supplier selection, in real situation, is affected by several qualitative and quantitative factors and is one of the most important activities of purchasing department. Since at the time of evaluating suppliers against the criteria or factors, decision makers (DMS) do not have precise, exact and complete information, supplier selection becomes more difficult. In this case, Grey theory helps us ...

The facility location selection, which is one of the important activities in strategic planning for a wide range of private and public companies, is a multi-criteria decision making problem including both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Traditional methods for facility location selection can not be effectively handled because information can not be represented by precise information unde...

Selection of an appropriate Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method for providing a solution to given MADM problem is always challenging endeavour. The challenge even greater situations where specific there exist multiple methods with similar degree suitability. Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and its dominant variant the Modified TOPSIS are two very ap...
