“…Sustainable design evaluation of electronic products is the most widely used area. Researches (Darbari, Kannan, Agarwal, & Jha, 2019;Wang, Chan, Lee, & Li, 2015;Yi & Wu, 2021) put forward models and design criteria to achieve green eco-design and reduce the environmental pressure. It is also common to integrate Fuzzy in product sustainable design (Ali, Paksoy, Torgul, & Kaur, 2020;Chakraborty, Mondal, & Mukherjee, 2017;Palacio, Adenso-Diaz, & Lozano, 2018).…”

Sustainability is an issue concerned with social, economic and environmental problems. The primary aim of sustainability is to fulfil the needs of the present society without compromising potential needs of future generations. Product design has a significant impact on sustainability, and a sensible decision-making process that considers trade-offs at early design stage is critical to the success of product design that addresses environmental sustainability issues. This study aims to identify and review the decision-making process for environmentally sustainable design. A comprehensive literature review has been performed to establish the trends over the past two decades. The decision-making process for sustainable design has been summarised, and the frequently-used decision-making methods, such as ANP/AHP, TOPSIS, and BWM, have been identified and discussed. A framework for the selection of Multi-criteria Decision-making (MCDM) methods has been developed to aid researchers to select appropriate MCDM methods in sustainable design. In addition, future research opportunities have also been identified.

Accurate waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) recycling forecast is an essential reference for optimizing e-waste industry layout and division of labor policies, conducive to better guiding enterprises’ recycling activities and improving the efficiency of WEEE recycling in China. The nonlinear grey Bernoulli model (NGBM (1,1)) was constructed by analyzing the recycling data characteristics of WEEE from 2012 to 2020, and a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was introduced to solve the model parameters and optimize the background value coefficients. The prediction results were compared with other grey prediction models to verify the effectiveness of the improved NGBM (1,1) model for WEEE recycling prediction in China and the applicability of the PSO algorithm for improving the prediction accuracy of each grey model. Statistical data were used to forecast the WEEE recycling volume in China from 2021 to 2023, and the results show that the value of WEEE recycling will continue to grow at 9%. The value of recycling will reach 16 billion yuan by 2023, while the value of WEEE recycling will see a slight decline. Based on the calculation results, the WEEE recycling industry development trend is predicted to guide the promotion of the WEEE industry recycling program and the national circular economy program.

“…AHP is an objective and practical research method [41]. Currently, AHP is widely used in decision-making problems in various disciplines such as product design [42][43][44], architecture [45], materials science [46], oceanography [47]. The abstraction level of the middle layer in the three-layer diagram is between the upper layer and the lower layer.…”

With the spread of COVID-19 worldwide, various travel restrictions are becoming a significant trigger for anxiety. Although healing products could relieve anxiety, few scholars have proposed a practical design strategy. Therefore, we offer a design strategy for healing products that includes three phases: preparation, analysis, and verification. In Phase 1, 20 people with moderate or high anxiety are invited to rate 100 samples. Then, FCM is used to obtain representative samples. In Phase 2, a three-layer diagram (incl. the upper, middle, and lower layers) of healing products is obtained using the evaluation grid method. Subsequently, the middle layer is considered evaluation criteria. Additionally, 18 items in the lower layer are considered design guidelines. In Phase 3, we invite two teams to develop innovative designs based on design guidelines and personal experience, generating four alternatives. Finally, four alternatives and four healing commodities are evaluated using grey relation analysis and perceptual questionnaires. The consistency of both evaluations could confirm the validity of the evaluation criteria. The alternatives generated based on the design guidelines are better than other alternatives, demonstrating the effectiveness of the design guidelines. The design strategy is beneficial for developing and evaluating healing products to alleviate people’s anxiety during COVID-19.
