A systematic study of the optional maintenance strategies of the Transformer is conducted and a set of general factors which should be considered in the maintenance strategies is established. A Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) based on the goal programming is proposed in view of the defects of the traditional Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP), and the specific application process o...

 In today’s highly competitive market, the pressure on organizations to find a better way to create and deliver value to customers is mounting. The decision involves many quantitative and qualitative factors that may be conflicting in nature. Here, we present a new model for transportation problem with consideration of quantitative and qualitative data. In the model, we quantify the qua...

using the mathematic techniques such as fuzzy approach has useful outcomes for production planning in different sources. in this paper lgp1 was used to model the objectives such as: avoidance of shortage or surplus of demand, access to maximum of income, using the normal capacity of production and organizing the inventory of warehouse, within the framework of goal constraints like balancing be...

this study recommends a gis-based (geographic information systems) and multi-criteria evaluation for site selection of gas power plant in natanz city of iran. the multi-criteria decision framework integrates legal requirements and physical constraints related to environmental and economic concerns. it also builds a hierarchy model for gas power plant suitability. the methodologies used for site...

Obesity has been linked to several heart diseases .Unfortunately, Malaysian today are the most overweight or obese people among Asian nations. That is, half of population is overweight. These serious social consequences. Therefore, specific and actions needed reduce eliminate this threat. The rapid increase in obesity rates directed link with factors such as low physical activities, ease transp...

There are various methods for obtaining the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix factors. These methods can be employed when the elements of pair-wise comparison matrix are crisp while they are inefficient for fuzzy elements of pair-wise comparison matrix. In this paper, a method is proposed by which the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix elements can be obtained even ...
