Application of MCDM Techniques for Selection of Battery for Electric Vehicle
Abstract: An electric vehicle (EV) operates using an electric motor, which differs from traditional vehicles powered by internal combustion enginesElectric motors are used to power EVs rather than gasoline and gasses. These motors are powered by fuel cells, solar panels, or battery packs that recharge. As a result, EVs are increasingly considered as potential replacements for conventional automobiles, aiming to combat issues such as pollution, global warming, and resource depletion. Electric …

A Novel Direct Weighted Deviation (DWD) Method for Agricultural Enterprise Selection: A Case Study of Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu
Abstract: The study proposes a novel Direct Weighted Deviation (DWD) method for Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) by eliminating normalization, distance metrics, and pairwise comparisons. DWD is thereafter used to evaluate and select ten rainfed agricultural enterprises against ten generic and context-specific viability criteria in Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu, a water-scarce region in India. Subsequently, other methods (AHP, SAW, WPM, and TOPSIS) are used to obtain a comparative second opinion and validate …
