A Comprehensive Ahp-Topsis Approach For Non-Traditional Machining Process Selection In The Manufacturing Sector
Abstract: Non-traditional machining processes (NTMPs) are being used more widely in modern industry as a result of the increased use of advanced materials in that sector. Selecting the best Non-Traditional Machining Process (NTMP) is essential to a manufacturing company's success and competitiveness. One way to think of the process of choosing the best NTMP for a given machining processes application is as a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem with a lot of …

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 …

Multicriteria Decision Making using SR-Fuzzy Sets
Abstract: In this study, we introduce and explore square-root fuzzy sets (SR-Fuzzy sets), a novel extension within the realm of fuzzy set theory. We begin by establishing a comparative analysis between SR-Fuzzy sets and two well-known fuzzy set models: Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFS) and Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets (PFS). This comparison highlights the unique characteristics and mathematical structure of SR-Fuzzy sets. A particular focus is placed on the complement operator, which plays …

A Novel Symmetric Anchor Scoring (SAS) Method for Industrial Location Selection: Application to Electric Vehicle Manufacturing in Tamil Nadu, India
Abstract: This work highlights the city-level detail of decision-making enabled by a new MCDM method Symmetry Anchor Scoring (SAS). Generally conventional methods are good at selecting one best and one worst alternative, but not differentiating among the many strong contenders more likely in practice. Linking MCDM methods to the tradition of decision making, the paper discusses the mathematics and analogical basis of SAS design, provides a visual proof of its ideal …
