Abstract:The principles of sustainability have become particularly important in the construction, real estate maintenance sector, and all areas of life in recent years. The one of the major problem of urban territories that domestic and construction waste of generated products cannot be removed automatically. The above necessity induces the demand of systems and technologies for waste life cycle and proper disposal development. Siting of the waste incineration plant is a complex process, which includes all factors of sustainability principles. The selection of the construction area is a complex problem due to the existence of different tangible and intangible factors and the multiple alternatives available. Multicriteria decision-making methods (MCDM) present powerful and flexible techniques for the solution of many sustainability problems. In this paper, we propose a new extension of WASPAS method, namely WASPAS-SVNS. This extension is realized in the framework of the single-valued neutrosophic set that enables to represent and model the indeterminacy explicitly and the functions of the truth-membership, the indeterminacy-membership and the falsity-membership are not related to each other. The paper deals with the solution of the waste incineration plant siting problem due to the requirements of sustainability factors.

“…Several MADM techniques have been proposed for the SSE problem: analytic hierarchy process (AHP) [34][35][36], analytic network process (ANP) [34], complex proportional assessment (COPRAS) [36][37][38], data envelopment analysis (DEA) [36,[39][40][41], elimination et choix traduisant la realité (ELECTRE) [42,43], preference ranking organization method for enrichment of evaluations (PROMETHEE) [44], technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) [45][46][47][48][49], visekriterijumska optimizacija i kompromisno resenje (VIKOR) [50,51], decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) [52,53], multi-objective optimisation by ratio analysis (MOORA) [54], case based reasoning (CBR) [55], fuzzy inference systems [56,57], genetic algorithm (GA) [58], mathematical and goal programming (MP) [59], simple multi-attribute rating technique (SMART) [60], and their hybrids, among others. In those MADM techniques, the supplier qualification is set according to the valuation given to different relevant factors (qualitative and quantitative) in the evaluation process.…”

Suitability of a Consensual Fuzzy Inference System to Evaluate Suppliers of Strategic Products

This paper designs a bidding and supplier evaluation model focused on strategic product procurement, and develops their respective evaluation knowledge bases. The model is built using the most relevant variables cited in the reviewed procurement literature and allows to compare two evaluation methods: a factor weighting method (WM) and a fuzzy inference system (FIS). By consulting an expert panel and using a two-tuples symbolic translation system, strong fuzzy partitions for all model variables are built. The method, based on central symmetry, permits to obtain the fuzzy label borders from their cores, which have been previously agreed among experts. The system also allows to agree the fuzzy rules to embed in the FIS. The results show the FIS method's superiority as it allows to better manage the non-linear behavior and the uncertainty inherent to the supplier evaluation process.

Abstract:The impact of uncertainty on risk assessment and decision-making is increasingly being prioritized, especially for large geotechnical projects such as tunnels, where uncertainty is often the main source of risk. Epistemic uncertainty, which can be reduced, is the focus of attention. In this study, the existing entropy-risk decision model is first discussed and analyzed, and its deficiencies are improved upon and overcome. Then, this study addresses the fact that existing studies only consider parameter uncertainty and ignore the influence of the model uncertainty. Here, focus is on the issue of model uncertainty and differences in risk consciousness with different decision-makers. The utility theory is introduced in the model. Finally, a risk decision model is proposed based on the sensitivity analysis and the tolerance cost, which can improve decision-making efficiency. This research can provide guidance or reference for the evaluation and decision-making of complex systems engineering problems, and indicate a direction for further research of risk assessment and decision-making issues.
