“…MEREC is most widely used in the following applications in engineering: selection of a phase change material [134], selecting truck mixer concrete pump [135], determining the parameters for external cylindrical grinding [136], determining dressing parameters for internal cylindrical grinding [137], dressing process for internal grinding [138], determining input parameters for CBN grinding [139], material selection of a lightweight aircraft wing spar [140], pallet truck selection [141], selecting optimal spray-painting robot [23], milling process [142], selection quality hole by ultrasonic machining process [143], prioritizing solid-state drivers [144], determining the best experiment for turning process [145], plasma arc cutting process optimization [146], selecting the schema of scissors mechanism [147], determining the process input parameters in wire-electrical discharge machining [148], powder-mixed electric discharge machining [149][150][151], cubic boron nitride grinding [152], and hole turning process [8]. Uses other than applications in these areas are as follows: food waste treatment technology selection [153], urban planning and development, specifically in the context of sustainable smart city development [154], urban transport planning and DM, with a focus on adapting transport plans to the COVID-19 pandemic [155], web and IoT-based hospital location determination [156].…”
