In China, the expressways have been built a lot over past decade. The construction of expressway suffers from usual cost overrun. There are many factors different stakeholders influencing expressways, and it is difficult to control all them. Therefore, necessary identify key causing overrun take corresponding measures. this article, decision-making trial evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL), interpr...

This study identifies the factors that can enable blockchain technology (BCT) implementation in logistics sector and reveals interdependencies, hierarchical structure, causalities between them. uses a three-phased research framework to identify thirteen enablers BCT adoption Logistics Supply Chain (LSC) analyse cause-effect relationships using an integrated Interpretive Structural Modelling Dec...

The wide ecological area consists of a rangeland with special vegetation and one of the key factors in rangeland management is to select Management Indicator Species (MIS). Management indicator species based on a new method such as Analytical Network Process-Decision Making Trial and Evaluation (ANP-DEMATEL) is one of the most important stages in the successful Range management as choosing a su...

The realization of sustainable social rental housing is regarded as an important policy to solve the burden, but often unsustainable. This study assesses sustainability housing. However, decision-making models, such classical hierarchy (AHP) used in current study, conflict with resolution complex influence relationship between evaluation dimensions/criteria. Based on this, we construct a new hy...

Sustainable supplier selection (SSS) has become an essential task for decision-makers in competitive environments. We construct a new decision-making framework SSS. First, classical SSS usually includes fixed factors environmental, social and economic dimensions.

For capturing the advantages of LARG in SC, companies needed to recognize proper practices and implement them with appropriate planning and infrastructure. However, one of its deficiencies is lack of proper method in the prior...

Efficient planning and operation of the power distribution networks are paramount. Losses along network responsible for loss a large deal energy capital every year. Numerous projects being defined implemented targeted around idea reducing losses, which rather expressed in terms an organization existing networks. Accordingly, we address prioritization research project with case study on Tehran’s...

Due to great effect of mining operation on environment and dependent sides, paying attention to the aspects of sustainable development (SD) is important. A conjugation of Grey theory and Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) is able to find out cause and effect relations among the triple mining SD components and their effective factors. Grey–DEMATEL approach has been used in...
