A novel approach to emergency risk assessment using FMEA with extended MULTIMOORA method under interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy environment

Abstract

PurposeThe application of the traditional failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) technique has been widely questioned in evaluation information, risk factor weights and robustness of results. This paper develops a novel FMEA framework with extended MULTIMOORA method under interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy environment to solve these problems.Design/methodology/approachThis paper introduces innovatively interval-value Pythagorean fuzzy weighted averaging (IVPFWA) operator, Tchebycheff metric distance and interval-value Pythagorean fuzzy weighted geometric (IVPFWG) operator into the MULTIMOORA submethods to obtain the risk ranking order for emergencies. Finally, an illustrative case is provided to demonstrate the practicality and feasibility of the novel fuzzy FMEA framework.FindingsThe feasibility and validity of the proposed method are verified by comparing with the existing methods. The calculation results indicate that the proposed method is more consistent with the actual situation of project and has more reference value.Practical implicationsThe research results can provide supporting information for risk management decisions and offer decision-making basis for formulation of the follow-up emergency control and disposal scheme, which has certain guiding significance for the practical popularization and application of risk management strategies in the infrastructure projects.Originality/valueA novel approach using FMEA with extended MULTIMOORA method is developed under IVPF environment, which considers weights of risk factors and experts. The method proposed has significantly improved the integrity of information in expert evaluation and the robustness of results.

Evaluation of Cloud Computing Copyright Protection Based on AHP

“…It provides new idea and method for scientific evaluation of copyright protection in the cloud computing environment and has certain practical value. In the future, we will take the AHP with the evaluation of copyright protection into other fuzzy environment [37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51].…”

Evaluation of startup companies using multicriteria decision making based on hesitant fuzzy linguistic information envelopment analysis models

“…28 It allows the experts to choose some possible linguistic terms for expressing opinions. 29 HFLTSs have attracted much attention from scholars and researchers in the decisionmaking field. 30 Many variants of HFLTSs have been put forward, such as the double hierarchy linguistic term set (LTS), 31,32 unbalanced HFLTS, 33 hesitant probabilistic fuzzy linguistic set, 34 and hesitant multiplicative LTSs.…”

“…Inspired by the definition of hesitant fuzzy set, 26 a novel model, called HFLTS, was proposed by Rodriguez et al 27 and it was extended by Wang 28 . It allows the experts to choose some possible linguistic terms for expressing opinions 29 …”

A Revised Grey Relational Analysis Method for Multicriteria Group Decision-Making with Expected Utility Theory for Oil Spill Emergency Management

“…Mathematical Problems in Engineering incorporated into the management planning process [5,[22][23][24][25][26][27]. Over the past 40 years, MCDM has made remarkable progress and evolved into a mature discipline [15,[28][29][30]. It has been used in a wide range of practical applications, such as information science, engineering systems, and decision-making [8,[31][32][33][34][35][36].…”
