Analysis of the suitability of the solar panels for hospitals: A new fuzzy decision-making model proposal with the T-Spherical TOP-DEMATEL method

Abstract: In this study, a new fuzzy decision-making model is created to evaluate whether the solar panels are efficient to minimize energy costs of the hospitals. The weights of the criteria are calculated by considering T-Spherical fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method. Moreover, for the purpose of measuring the coherency of the findings, analysis results are also calculated for different t values. Additionally, by making improvements to some criticisms to the classical DEMATEL method,… Show more

“…Nevertheless, DEMATEL method has also some disadvantages. The foremost of these is that the criteria weights are equal in the case of a symmetrical evaluation [9,10]. The mathematical background of this disadvantage is related to the weighting process steps of the DEMATEL method [11].…”

“…(iii) DEMATEL technique has many benefits by comparing with other techniques, such as creating impact directions of the indicators. However, this methodology has also been criticized because of some issues [9]. For example, the criteria weights are equal in the case of a symmetrical evaluation [10].…”

“…Many different scholars criticized classical DEMATEL technique. In this context, DEMATEL gives the same weights inappropriately in case of symmetrical expert evaluations [4]. To overcome this problem, TOP-DEMATEL method is generated.…”
