Critical analysis of a multicriteria decision-aid method for the choice of urban drainage Systems

چکیده

There are various possibilities for the design of urban stormwater systems, using best management practices. Castro and Baptista (2004) have proposed a set of performance indicators, based social, environmental, sanitary and hydrologic aspects. During the validation process, a critical analysis of the indicators was done. The aim of this paper is to present the results of this analysis which is based on two approaches: one concerning the evaluation of the quality of the indicators set and the other verifying the methodology of the weighting. The critical analysis showed to be a good tool to validate the indicators set bringing interesting information to suppress, join or improve indicators.

Generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy Hamacher generalized Shapley Choquet integral operators for multicriteria decision making

The interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) which is an extension of the Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy set is a powerful tool for modeling real life decision making problems. In this paper, we propose the emph{generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy Hamacher generalized Shapley Choquet integral} (GIVIFHGSCI) and the emph{interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy Hamacher general...
